Searching for Jeff Barnaby's "Blood Quantum"

Canadian First Nations filmmaker Jeff Barnaby is working on, or has he already completed, his first full-length feature film: Blood Quantum. It is a zombie movie set on a First Nations reservation, where the residents of the Mi'qmaq Nation are uninfected but forced into dealing with refugees and (I'm guessing) the hungry dead. Barnaby has described it as allegory for the ongoing Native plight in Canada. This film sounds like it should be up front and center in my research on the zombie phenomenon.

How can I contact Barnaby, and how can I get a copy of this film?

Below is a trailer for Barnaby's award-winning short film The Colony, a picture he's described as a love story but which has some critics placing it within the horror genre. (And equally difficult to get a hold of.)
