Dinae Robinson is a proud Anishinaabekwe (Ojibwe) writer, director, and advocate from Swan Lake First Nations, Manitoba on Treaty 1 Territory. True to her ancestral roots, storytelling has always interested Dinae, initially starting out in front of the camera as an actress. Dinae has appeared as an actor in several films, including The Oldest Profession in Winnipeg from Farpoint Films and Child First, which premiered at the Understanding the Disability Trajectory of First Nations Families of Children with Disabilities National Summit. Child First was written, directed, and produced by Rebecca Gibson. Dinae was selected to be apart of the National Screen Institute’s CBC New Indigenous Voices program, Dinae credits this experience for influencing her to move into the creative development side of film behind the camera.

In 2014, Dinae was awarded the First Film Fund from the Winnipeg Film Group and wrote, directed, and produced her first short film How the Savage came to be. As an intergenerational survivor of the Indian Residential School system, Dinae felt it was imperative for her first film to be a piece that shed a light on Canada’s dark history and the ripple effect that it has impacted on Indigenous people living in North America. How the Savage came to be premiered at the Winnipeg Aboriginal Film Festival in January 2016 and has screened at the Gimli Film Festival, Red Nation Film Festival in Los Angeles, NSI Online Short Film Festival and was a finalist in the Canadian Diversity Film Festival in Toronto. All Dinae’s work is influenced by the spiritual traditional way of life and the social and political issues that Indigenous people have endured historically and presently. Dinae also has worked as a program facilitator at the Indigenous-led non-profit organization; Ka Ni Kanichihk (pronounced Ga Ni Ganichick) meaning “those who lead” in the Ininew (Cree) in the Heart Medicine Lodge. A program that delivers unique culturally-based support and advocacy services for self-identifying Indigenous women who have experienced sexualized violence and trauma. Dinae is determined to be a voice for political and social change that advocates for Indigenous rights.

Dinae is proud to be a writer for the APTN and CBC television series Taken, a true-crime documentary series that focuses on solving the mysteries behind Canada’s epidemic of missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls.

A graduate of the Computer Applications for Business program at Red River College, Dinae balances her time as a mother and as a student working towards a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Indigenous Studies at the University of Winnipeg. Dinae has a few projects in development and is currently working on writing two feature-length films titled Telling Stories with Cuzzins a feature-length dark comedy- horror film and a fantasy-horror film titled My Sister Nova.

Dinae is thrilled to be co-showrunner and an episode writer and director for Eagle Vision’s new series 7TH GEN for APTN, sharing stories of incredible young Indigenous leaders across the country with a focus on culture and language reclamation.

She will soon direct her feature film Have You Heard? , and is currently writing on Eagle Vision’s new preschool series Stevie and the Sacred Animals as well as directing and writing the feature documentary series TRUE STORY which she created for History Channel/Global.
