So proud to part of this amazing new show!!

We’ve been holding this in… and we’re excited to finally share!😆

Our brand-new kids series Cool Indigenous Stuff was greenlit by CBC and we officially kicked off production this week!! 🎬✨

We are proud to be producing the series alongside our amazing co-producer, Numan Films.

Premiering Fall 2026 on CBC, this fast-paced live-action series is created for kids aged 6-9 and led by our incredible youth hosts Brody Morrisseau (12) and Winter Sinclair (11).

Each episode drops them into a brand-new adventure, from powwow dancing and hair-braiding challenges to music, food, and community festivals. Along the way, they meet inspiring Indigenous Knowledge Keepers, artists, athletes, and creators from across Nations.

Blending live action with playful animated Spirit Helpers, the series weaves in simple Anishinaabemowin words and phrases in ways that are fun, accessible, and easy for families to learn together!

As an Indigenous-owned company based in Winnipeg, this project means so much to us — creating representation on screen and meaningful opportunities for Indigenous youth both in front of and behind the camera.

More details to come! For now, we celebrate this moment and the incredible community who helped us get here. 💜✨

A North of Ordinary documentary by Nüman Films. After fifteen years without an NHL team, Winnipeg waited, and wondered if hockey would ever truly come home. White Noise traces the extraordinary chain of events that led to the Winnipeg Jets’ return in 2011, and the eruption of sound, belief, and identity that followed. The film explores what hockey means to a city that never let go. Directed by Randy Frykas.
