The Salmon’s Call, a new documentary by Dakelh filmmaker Joy Haskell, will premiere on Knowledge Network this June during Indigenous People’s History Month. It will stream online starting June 17 and air nationally on June 24 at 9:00 p.m. PT.

The film explores the deep connection between wild salmon and Indigenous communities in British Columbia. It follows a journey from the coast to Stuart Lake, sharing stories from elders, youth, and artists.

Themes include cultural traditions, environmental threats from fish farming, and the future of salmon conservation. The documentary highlights salmon as a symbol of resilience and renewal. It also underscores the role of Indigenous knowledge in shaping sustainable ecological practices.

Produced by Firediva Productions and Cedar Island Films, the film was supported by Knowledge Network, Canada Media Fund, Creative BC, and the Indigenous Screen Office.
