Lakota Nation vs. United States

CAUSE: 

CATEGORY: Film

PROJECT DIRECTOR: Kathryn Everett

LAKOTA NATION VS. UNITED STATES is a powerful new documentary written and narrated by acclaimed Oglala poet Layli Long Soldier and co-directed by Jesse Short Bull and Laura Tomaselli. The film is a searing testament to the strength of the Oyate and a visually stunning rejoinder to the distorted image of a people long-shaped by Hollywood. Using a treasure trove of rich archival material, electrifying on-the-ground footage and intimate interviews with veteran activists and young leaders such as NDN Collective founder Krystal Two Bulls and activist Candi Brings Plenty, LAKOTA NATION VS. UNITED STATES is a lyrical and provocative testament to a land and a people who have survived removal, exploitation and genocide--and whose best days are yet to come.
