Gabriel K 01/06/2025 This fantastic film follows several stories to show the power of traditional knowledge and food sovernty. It held my attention and was deeply impactful. See more 12/05/2020 This moving and inspiring film looks at four grassroots initiatives aiming to restore and regenerate food sovereignty by and for indigenous Native Americans. The initiatives range from a new food cafe on the White Mountain Reservation; restoring the skills and rights of fishing on the Klamath River of northern California; reviving the ancient knowledge and skills of foraging for wild plants and animals; and demonstrating the nutritional superiority of grass-fed buffalo and revitalising buffalo as a source of spiritual and physical nourishment.
