REEL INJUN (2009, 1 h 28 mins)
Cree filmmaker Neil Diamond takes an entertaining and insightful look at the "Hollywood Indian," exploring the portrayal of North American Indigenous peoples through a century of cinema. Traveling through the heartland of America, and into the Canadian North, Diamond looks at how the myth of “the Injun” has influenced the world’s understanding – and misunderstanding – of Indigenous peoples.
All are welcome to attend.
