SUMMARY:100 Years: One Woman’s Fight For Justice
DESCRIPTION:When Elouise Cobell\, a petite Blackfeet warrior from Montana\, started asking questions about missing money from government managed Indian Trust accounts\, she never imagined that one day she would be taking on the world’s most powerful government. But what she discovered as the Treasurer of her tribe was a trail of fraud and corruption leading all the way from Montana to Washington DC.\n\n100 YEARS is the story of her 30-year fight for justice for 300\,000 Native Americans whose mineral rich lands were grossly mismanaged by the United States Government. In 1996\, Cobell filed the largest class action lawsuit ever filed against the federal government. For 15 long years\, and through three Presidential administrations\, Elouise Cobell’s unrelenting spirit never quit. This is the compelling true story of how she prevailed.

SUMMARY:OPENING NIGHT
DESCRIPTION:The thoughtful and moving debut feature by Adam Garnet Jones focuses on Shane (Andrew Martin)\, a young Anishinaabe man at a crossroads. \nEven as his family is still reeling from a recent tragedy\, Shane is forced to decide whether he will leave the reservation to go to school — and he’s also faced with the prospect of raising tuition money fast\, not an easy thing to do in a depressed area. (Not legally\, anyway.) \nThen there’s the complicated matter of his love life. While his girlfriend\, Tara (Mary Galloway)\, would love to come with him to the city\, Shane would prefer to make the trip with David (Harley Legarde-Beacham)\, the grandson of the community’s leader. But David is deeply committed to learning the tribe’s traditions\, and believes that leaving the reservation would be a cop-out. As Shane struggles with his own problems\, he fails to realize that neglecting those he loves may have disastrous consequences. \nWith sensitivity and intelligence\, Fire Song confronts some of the most pressing questions facing First Nations communities. What is it that makes a community — and is a person’s actual physical presence in that community a necessary part of it? Would Shane really be turning his back on those he cares for by leaving\, or does the pressure on him to stay prohibit opportunity? Can a two-spirited person be truly accepted by a tradition-bound culture\, or do exclusionary interpretations of that culture’s traditions condemn them to make a life for themselves elsewhere?
