    • Synopsis
    • Indigenous Architecture is a unique and inspiring story of a proud and accomplished collective of Indigenous architects, driving a movement as climate change threatens the planet.
      They are world leaders in aesthetic, form, sustainability and ultimately protecting mother earth. Their stories have never been more important.

      We follow 7 diverse Indigenous architects from North America as they express the vitality of Indigenous architecture through the process, design, and build. They all define their individuality through their artistry, and bond in their philosophy and principles of protecting the planet. They are diverse in gender, age, and artistic approach, yet they find common ground in their Indigenous identity. Each architect has harrowing tales of dysfunction, poverty, violence and assimilation, but they all overcame adversity to become the top in their field. They exemplify success.
