Episode 169: Mary Galloway
Querencia is one of the very first women-driven, Indigiqueer romantic screen projects anywhere. APTN Lumi's first original series centres on the budding romance between two young Indigenous women – Abe, played by Mary Galloway, and Daka, played by Kaitlyn Yott – and follows them as they navigate and explore their complex Indigiqueer identities. Querencia was written and directed by Mary Galloway – critically acclaimed for her acting work in Never Steady, Never Still and her shorts Spirit Glitch and Unintentional Mother – and co-executive produced with Jessie Anthony (Brother, I Cry). In this fascinating interview, Mary talks about the heartbreak that led to this sexy, devastating, funny, and joyful series, and why we should tell more love stories.
