Zack Khalil (Sault Tribe of Chippewa Indians) is a filmmaker and artist from Bahweting (so called Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan) currently based in Brooklyn, New York. His work centers Indigenous narratives in the present—and looks toward the future—through the use of innovative nonfiction forms.

Zack is a core contributor to New Red Order, a public-secret society which calls attraction toward Indigeneity into question, yet promotes this desire, and enjoins potential non-Indigenous accomplices to participate in the co-examination and expansion of Indigenous agency. His work has been exhibited at Artists Space, Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit, Museum of Modern Art, Whitney Museum of American Art, Lincoln Center, Walker Arts Center, and the Sundance Film Festival among other institutions. Zack is the recipient of various fellowships and grants, including the Jerome Hill Artist Fellowship, Sundance Art of Nonfiction Grant, and Gates Millennium Scholarship.
