Born and raised on the Mi’gMaq reservation of Listuguj Quebec, a consummate iconoclast, Jeff Barnaby dropped the drum and the feather for sex, violence, and booze hound broken Indians, earning him the badge of bad boy of native Canadian cinema. Having graduated in 2004 from Concordia’s film production program, he has won numerous awards and his films have been shown around the world and are available on a variety of streaming services. His debut feature film was Rhymes for Young Ghouls (2013), followed by Blood Quantum (2019). He currently lives in St-Lazare, Quebec.
