Aki is a Canadian documentary film, directed by Darlene Naponse and released in 2025.[1] The film is a portrait of changing seasonal life, both in the natural world and in the culture of the community, in Naponse's home community of Atikameksheng Anishnawbek, an Ojibwe reserve near Sudbury, Ontario.[2]
The film also includes some contrast between the natural environment of Atikameksheng, and the surrounding industrial development in Sudbury.[3]
The film premiered at the 2025 Toronto International Film Festival,[1] and subsequently had a gala screening at the 2025 Cinéfest Sudbury International Film Festival.[2]
