 The Icicle Calls Us Back is a documentary film project that asks p’squos
 a/Wenatchi descendants what they wish to see for the future of nsíq̓əlt
 \, or Icicle Creek\, in their ancestral homelands\, what is today the town
  of Leavenworth\, Washington. The Icicle Fishery was once one of the most 
 bountiful salmon fisheries in the world\, and carries special spiritual an
 d traditional significance to the p’squosa. During negotiations of the 1
 855 Walla Walla Treaty\, p’squosa leaders requested and were granted the
  preservation of the Icicle Fishery and six square miles of land surroundi
 ng the confluence of the Icicle and Wenatchee Rivers as a reservation for 
 their people. Despite this promise\, the U.S. government put off surveying
  the reservation for decades\, ultimately prioritizing the wishes of white
  settlers and the development of the Great Northern Railroad. The p’squo
 sa were forcibly removed from their homelands\, and today many descendants
  live on the Colville Reservation\, where the Wenatchi are one of twelve c
 onfederated tribes.\n\nThis film asks three generations of p’squosa desc
 endants what nsíq̓əlt means to them\, and to imagine the future they wi
 sh to see for their homelands. In an era of climate change and uncertainty
 \, one thing that is certain is that the Icicle’s original stewards know
  how best to care for this land\, and that\, together\, we can achieve a b
 etter future for nsíq̓əlt.\n\nThe film was created in collaboration wit
 h the Wenatchi Advisory Group\, under a research permit from the Colville 
 Confederated Tribes\, as Claire Seaman’s MA thesis\, Department of Geogr
 aphy at the University of British Columbia\, Vancouver B.C.\n\nAbout Clair
 e\nClaire Seaman is a painter\, filmmaker\, and printmaker from Leavenwort
 h\, WA\, whose work grapples with the human relationship to the natural en
 vironment. More than an attempt to come to terms with and climate change\,
  she seeks to share and cultivate community-based solutions to the climate
  crisis through art.\n\nShe holds a BA from Smith College in Studio Art\, 
 with a concentration in Climate Change and an MA in Human Geography from t
 he University of British Columbia. In July\, she joined Icicle Creek Cente
 r for the Arts as their Associate Director.
