MY FRIEND SAABE

But not everyone sees the world as she does. Kobe, a troubled teen, mocks her efforts, and Stan, weighed down by addiction, resists the healing she offers. Still, Lindy persists, guided by Saabe’s presence and the belief that even small acts of kindness can spark change.

Through quiet moments of prayer, laughter in the forest, and the courage to stand tall in the face of doubt, Lindy becomes a bridge between land, spirit, and people. By the film’s end, healing begins to ripple through the community — elders reconnect to prayer, Stan finds strength in ceremony, and even Kobe begins to soften, joining Lindy in her journey.

Cinematic and deeply rooted in Anishinaabe storytelling, My Friend Saabe is a love letter to friendship, land, and the living presence of Indigenous teachings.
