CHIEFS' PROPHECY Survival of the Northern Cheyenne Nation

An insider's view of the Northern Cheyenne nation, seeking inspiration from the past as well as looking to modern solutions for the continued survival of the culture. Mon. Apr. 20th 10:30pm PBS-HD by Hector Gonzalez

Chiefs Prophecy

Citizen filmmaker Leo Killsback (Cheyenne) presents an insider's view of the Northern Cheyenne nation, from the "Sweet Medicine" laws used by tribal elders to lead tribal society to the root problems the nation suffers from today.

This is the first of three of the "Citizen Filmmaker" series exploring the cultures of American Indian Nations. We gave each of these filmmakers a camera and asked them to explore their lives and the lives of their people from the inside... from within their cultures. The stories are the filmmakers' own, told through their perspective, using their thoughts, words, and images.
