Trickster crossed my radar on Tumblr where somebody was talking about it as “indigenous contemporary fantasy” with an actual Native star. The show is based on a trilogy, Son of Trickster, by Eden Robinson, a member of the Haisla and Heitsuk First Nations in British Columbia and the series is directed by Michelle Latimer (Algonquin/Métis).
