KB B @Okbullard 04/20/2024 I thought this was a very worthwhile movie to experience. It's sad how many native Americans are forced to live. It's worth the watch.

I've read it was totally scripted but it feels very natural and seems improvised. Nice going to everyone involved. See more Paul L 03/12/2024 This movie is good, great realisation and we can really see the emotions of the characters through the screen. See more Aubrey P 12/09/2023 Really stellar. Acting is genuine and wonderful all around. This film somehow manages to merge a slice-of-life style indie with a satisfying, full-circle plot. It's exceptionally skilled at showing, not telling. Tension abounds, comments on society abound, perspectives on masculinity abound, and yet, nary a word on any are ever spoken. Masterful, and on the level with any intellectual indie. See more Damien B 08/17/2023 Sad to see what's happened to indigenous people and people of colour throughout Amerikkka, weather they are First Nations, African Americans, Mexican Hispanics and or Latinos. Sacred Lands have been overrun and desecrated by the white man, indeed ALL of the land belongs and belonged to the First Nations peoples, and its interesting to see how Hip-Hop, RAP, and Munblecore Trap subcultures has filtered into these communities, as well as a certain despair, desperation, and loss of culture while still being embedded within their culture, one can still feel the immense loss and grief the people are burdenned with like a millstone around the necks. What we see in this film feels authentic, modern and up-to-date in showing the current life situations, behaviours and attitudes of families, parents, kids and especially the teenagers who are trying to find themselves in the midst of this confusing, broken down lifestyle that they have unwittingly inherited in the aftermath of a long, virtually silent historical genocide of their peoples, lands, traditionalism, beliefs, customs and lifestyle. Thevancient ways are nearly all lost, and have given way to drugs, alcohol, domestic violence, broken relationships, and lives that seem to drift along meaninglessly until someone either dies or ends up incarcerated, or both. Reservation life is no joke and its no 'American Dream' either. Stick with the film to the end, think on it, oonder over it, discuss it, see it again. Love it or hate it, its not a film to be ignored, regardless of weather you feel drawn to it or repelled by it. Put your personal views, opinions and judgments aside and watch it with an open mind, its guaranteed to stay with you days afterwards. See more Read all reviews
