Curiosità

Night Raiders is a 2021 Canadian-New Zealand science fiction dystopian film written and directed by Danis Goulet. Set in a dystopian version of North America in the year 2044, the film centres on Niska, a Cree woman who joins a resistance movement against the oppressive military government in order to save her daughter.

Production

The film, a coproduction of companies from Canada and New Zealand, is executive produced by Taika Waititi. Goulet has described the film as inspired in part by Alfonso Cuarón's 2006 film Children of Men, as well as by the military response to the Dakota Access Pipeline protests on the Standing Rock Sioux Reservation in 2016; in addition, the film functions in part as an allegory for the Indian residential school system.

The film was shot in the Toronto area in 2019. It was originally slated for commercial release in 2020, but was postponed to 2021 following production delays caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.
