One Word is a series of micro-documentaries that tell stories through a single word rescued by visionary indigenous youth, from languages on the brink of being forgotten, as medicine for our ailing relationship with the earth. Through individual personal stories, this series sheds light on timely bio-cultural wisdom to inspire action in support of a better future for generations to come. To market and visually identify the series, we created the hummingbird hero graphic using cut paper art that reveals a greater landscape behind it as a metaphor for the project.
The first film in the series, "One Word Sawalmem" (Sacred Water), directed by Natasha Deganello Giraudie and Michael "Pom" Preston, was released in March 2020 to great acclaim. It has been selected by over 15 festivals around the world, and was a finalist in the short film program of the Tribeca Film Institute. We designed the film title logotype, movie poster, lower thirds text and and graphics for the film. To learn more and register for an upcoming screening visit oneword.earth.
