Tribal S2 Starring Brian Markinson and Jessica Matten on APTN

Jessica Matten’s breakthrough series Tribal on APTN takes us to Calgary Alberta and a nearby First Nations reservation. Matten’s Sam is Chief of Tribal Police, partnering with Metro Police, amidst procedural, racist, and sexist tensions. A gruesome find, a case near the reservation, an indigenous mobster and faceoffs with the status quo make for an exciting and ever-evolving narrative. Matten took time from the Santa Fe set of Robert Redford and George R.R. Martin’s Dark Winds to speak with What She Said’s Anne Brodie. BTW Redford and Martin are helping her produce her next screenplay
