Description

A Peabody Award-winning film, ''Reel Injun'' journeys through a century of cinema film providing an entertaining and provocative look at Hollywood's depiction of Native Americans and setting the record straight. Traveling through the heartland of the U.S. to the Black Hills and Monument Valley, Cree filmmaker Neil Diamond examines how the myth of the movie has influenced the world's understanding—and misunderstanding—of Native Americans.
