Summary
Woodland Spirits highlights the mentoring connections linking three men - Gelineau Fisher, Moses Beaver and Andrew Machendagoos - representing three generations of Woodland artists living in northwestern Ontario. All three have been profoundly affected by the life and work of the late Roy Thomas - a close friend, artistic influence and father figure whose wisdom on the connections between art, people and the natural world is a key presence in the film. Gelineau, Moses and Andrew work in the tradition of the Woodland School - featuring bold black lines, vibrant colours and interior visions of animal spirits.
