Tracey Deer
Club Native Trailer

Film/TV

A writer, director, producer and all around creator.

My work is my effort to bridge the gap between those two worlds: native and non-native.

In 2016, Tracey was one of the 12 honorees at The Birks Diamond Tribute to the Year’s Women in Film during TIFF. Her work has been honored with two Gemini awards, many nominations for Canadian Screen Awards, and has earned acclaim from international film festivals, including Hot Docs and DOXA. She has worked with the CBC, the NFB, and numerous independent production companies throughout Canada. In 2008, Playback Magazine declared Tracey as one of the 25 rising stars in the Canadian Entertainment Industry.

“Tracey represents the next wave of Native filmmaking,” says Adam Symansky, NFB producer of the documentary Mohawk Girls and Club Native, “It isn’t based on the past so much as on Native communities taking responsibility and control of their future. That is the challenge she is putting out in her films.”

Tracey always has many irons in the fire, but is currently working in the writers room on “Anne with an E” while developing her feature, “Beans”.
