“Independent Lens has a fresh batch of Monday night documentaries as enthralling as any scripted drama.”

“See how a group of Native and non-Native leaders in Maine came together to acknowledge and address the abuses suffered by Native children in the hands of the child welfare system, illuminating the ongoing crisis of indigenous child removal.”

“The untold story and devastating impacts of Indigenous child removal in the U.S.”

“Indie Lens Pop-Up, presented by ITVS, “Independent Lens” and RiverRun International Film Festival will present free screenings of “Dawnland” on October 23 at 6 p.m. at the Forsyth County Central Library in Winston-Salem”

Dawnland was a big winner at The Woods Hole Film Festival, taking home the Jury Award for best documentary.

“The truth and reconciliation process, and “Dawnland,” aim at healing. And, according to Tracy Rector, a Seattle-based media activist of Choctaw and Seminole descent and one of the producers of the film, they had some success.”
