 Homeland:
Four Portraits of Native Action
(2005, 90 min.) US
Director: Roberta Grossman
The inspiring story of five Native American activists battle
to protect Indian lands, preserve their sovereignty, and ensure
the cultural survival of their people: Gail Small (Northern Cheyenne);
Evon Peter (Gwichíin); Mitchell and Rita Capitan (Navajo);
and Barry Dana (Penobscot). From Alaska to New Mexico to Maine,
these leaders and their communities are rejecting multinational
energy companies and fighting the rollback of 30 years of environmental
laws. Winner of the audience award at the Santa Barbara Film Festival.
