Documentary screening highlighting Indigenous- conservation and stewardship in Northern Alberta.
Join us on March 5th, 2026, from 6:30-8:30 PM MST for the first ever screening of M’behcho: Home of the Dene’ Tha. The event will take place in the Muttart Theatre located in the Stanley Milner Public Library in Edmonton, Alberta.
This documentary highlights the leadership and ongoing work of the Dene Tha’ First Nation to conserve and protect M’behcho (Bistcho Lake).
Nestled in Alberta’s boreal forest, M’behcho is the third largest lake in Alberta, located in the northwest corner of the province. The region is home to iconic boreal species such as caribou and wolverine, and is an ancestral place to which all living Dene Tha’ people are deeply connected.
Through this film, the Dene Tha’ share their vision for the long-term stewardship of the M’behcho region – one that safeguards cultural sites and practices, protects critical caribou habitat, and conserves areas of high biodiversity and soil carbon. This screening offers a meaningful opportunity to learn about Indigenous-led conservation and the enduring relationship between people, land, and water.
