yuletide | 2022 Yuletide Promo Post

Welcome to the Fandom Promo post, everyone!

Here's where you get those eyes on your fandoms for sign-ups!

Share what makes your Yuletide fandoms the shiniest and why you love them. A big part of Yuletide is how small our fandoms can be, and this is a good way to make sure other people know what gems there are out there!

NEW: We've made a register! There is now a searchable Google spreadsheet index of the canons promoted on this post. Go ahead and add yours or any you see that are missing! We hope this helps connect people up with canons of interest to them.

What is it, in summary?:

What do you love about it?:

What sort of things are you likely to request for it?:

Are there sections of canon (rather than the whole canon) that can be consumed by themselves to fulfil your requests, or that showcase particular characters and relationships?:

This is at your discretion and is not expected to be comprehensive

(Bonus options: What are you thinking of requesting for this? If you're thinking of nominating worldbuilding, what sort of worldbuilding topics might people explore?)

Useful tip (Not required, but helps people if they want to engage with your fandom!):

- It's best to make each fandom its own entry with its own title in the subject line! That makes it easier for people to find/see what you're promoting! Don't worry about 'spam', that is the entire point of this entry and you're using it exactly as intended.

Title: Slash/Back (2022)

Media: film

Approx length: 1:26

Where to find it:

What is it, in summary?: A group of Inuit girls fight off an alien who invades their tiny town on the Arctic Circle.

What do you love about it?: Did you enjoy Prey? How about Blood Quantum? Check out an Inuit take on the horror genre in Slash/Back! This is a B-movie, but one created with love by the people of Nunavut. This movie does a wonderful job of showing the characters embracing or rejecting their traditional culture for the lure of the big city. Inuit language and culture are centered. Maika wears a leather jacket proclaiming NO JUSTICE ON STOLEN LAND. The setting is beautiful and wildly different; with all of the adults celebrating the Summer Solstice, the teenagers have to rely on each other and their traditional hunting weapons and skills to save the children and deal with the threat.

What sort of things are you likely to request for it?: Character studies, interviews, investigations into the culture of Pang, how did these girls learn their skills, this story making it into the traditional story-telling of their people.

Are there sections of canon (rather than the whole canon) that can be consumed by themselves to fulfil your requests, or that showcase particular characters and relationships?: Nope, it's a short movie

Content warnings (ie, rape, incest, racism, gore/violence): mild gore, off-screen death, racism and internalized racism, threats to children

Do you know where it's possible to see this movie?

It's going to be released in select US theatres and streamed on shudder.com (there's a 7-day free trial) on October 21!

Thanks! It sounds fantastic.
