The film is directed by Tracey Deer, an Indigenous woman whose own experiences from the crisis inspired her to write the movie.<\/p>\n<p>Danny Fisher, CEO of FilmRise, said: \u201c<em>Beans<\/em> is a perfect addition to our library of films showcasing important stories from underrepresented populations.
