And indictment on the American Treatment of Native People

A pignant look at life on a Native Reservation, the poorest jurisdiction in the United States. Interviews and on reserve footage shows the sad state of affairs in one of the richest countries in the world. The film is educational in showing a lot of the abuse stems from childern being raised in Christian Schools and not knowing how to be a parent when they grew up because they didn't experience their parents raising them. With the US spending billions of dollars g overseas aid it is a shame that such destitution exists within its own burders.
