My name is Iotetshèn:’en, and I live on Earth—usually. Thus begins The Peacemaker Returns, a futuristic saga set in 3025 yet firmly rooted in the ancestral Haudenosaunee (Iroquois) confederation story. This new machinima—an animation-style movie produced on the virtual reality platform Second Life—is the core of this children’s exhibition designed specifically for kids aged 5 to 11 by Skawennati.
