In this interview, Jeff talks about his film Blood Quantum (2019), a zombie apocalypse film set in the Red Crow Indian Reservation Listiguj, in Quebec, Canada. The three of them talk about the impact of the 1981 salmon raid on Listiguj, intergenerational trauma from colonialism, and the environmental message of Blood Quantum.
