SUMMARY:Native Voices Film Series: 25th Anniversary of "In the Light of Reverence" with Guest Corrina Gould
DESCRIPTION:  \nThe Sacred Land Film Project\, California Institute for Community\, Art & Nature\, and David Brower Center present a three-film series celebrating the 25th anniversary of “In the Light of Reverence” and featuring “Sugarcane” and “The Eternal Song.” \n“In Light of Reverence” is screening on Friday August 14th. \nOverview:  \n\n\n“This film is a wake-up call for everyone who cares about the environment and human rights.” — Robert Redford \n\n\n\n\nJoin for an in person opening screening of this three-film series celebrating the 25th anniversary of the award-winning documentary In the Light of Reverence. This special event takes place on the 25th anniversary of the film’s premiere and includes a Q&A with Director Toby McLeod and special guest Corrina Gould! \nIn the Light of Reverence is a groundbreaking film that explores American culture’s relationship to nature in three places considered sacred by native peoples: Devils Tower in Wyoming\, the Colorado Plateau in the Southwest\, and Mount Shasta in California. \nRich in minerals and beloved by recreational users\, these “holy lands” exert a spiritual gravity that pulls Native Americans into conflict with mining companies\, New Age practitioners and rock climbers. Ironically\, all sides see themselves as besieged. \nThis powerful film documents the Lakota\, Hopi\, and Winnemem Wintu efforts to protect their most sacred places. Their battles tell the story of culture clashes in an ancient landscape. \nThis acclaimed film was first broadcast by the PBS series POV on August 14\, 2001\, and is now in the libraries of 1\,000 universities\, schools\, and libraries. \nWatch the trailer for “In the Light of Reverence” here. \nInterested in the full series?

SUMMARY:Native Voices Film Series: Screening of "Sugarcane" with Director Julian Brave NoiseCat
DESCRIPTION:The Sacred Land Film Project\, California Institute for Community\, Art & Nature\, and David Brower Center present a three-film series celebrating the 25th anniversary of “In the Light of Reverence” and featuring “Sugarcane” and “The Eternal Song.”\n\n“Sugarcane” is screening on Wednesday September 16th.\n\nOverview\n\n\n\n“Immersive and incredibly beautiful\, shot like poetry and scored by Mali Obomsawin. The result is both stunning and sobering.” —NY Times \n\n\n\n\nJoin an exclusive in person screening of the powerful Oscar-nominated documentary “Sugarcane\,” followed by a discussion and Q&A with California Institute for Community\, Art & Nature Executive Director Claire Greensfelder\, in conversation with special guest\, film director Julian Brave NoiseCat. \nA stunning tribute to the resilience of Native people and their way of life – Sugarcane\, the debut feature documentary from Julian Brave NoiseCat and Emily Kassie – is an epic cinematic portrait of a community during a moment of international reckoning. Set amidst a ground-breaking investigation into abuse and death at an Indian residential school\, the film empowers participants to break cycles of intergenerational trauma by bearing witness to painful\, long-ignored truths – and the love that endures within their families despite the revelation of genocide. \nSugarcane premiered at the 2024 Sundance Film Festival\, where NoiseCat and Kassie won the Directing Award in the U.S. Documentary Competition. \nJulian Brave NoiseCat is a writer\, filmmaker\, champion powwow dancer\, and student of Salish art and history. He is the first Indigenous North American filmmaker ever nominated for an Academy Award. NoiseCat’s first documentary\, Sugarcane\, directed alongside Emily Kassie\, follows an investigation into abuse and missing children at the Indian residential school NoiseCat’s family was sent to near Williams Lake\, British Columbia. (But it’s really a reverse Western buddy stoner roadtrip tragicomedy.) \nDon’t miss the chance to meet and hear from our special guest\, Julian Brave NoiseCat. \nFollowing the Q&A\, Julian will be available to sign copies of his acclaimed new memoir “We Survived the Night” (Random House\, 2025). \nBooks will be available for purchase on site. \nWe hope to see you there! \nPraise for “Sugarcane” \n“Sugarcane” is soul-shaking. It’s profoundly evocative\, with spoken memories and moments of inability to muster the words gut-punching with equal measure. The landscape of the communities’ culture as a backdrop – stunning\, sprawling topography and a score of diegetic traditional soundscapes – counters the revelation of tragedies with the reminder of the colorful\, resilient culture that persists.” —RogerEbert.com \nAbout “We Survived the Night” \nWINNER OF THE TADEUSZ BRADECKI PRIZE • A stunning narrative from one of the most powerful young writers at work today\, and the director of the Oscar®-nominated documentary\, Sugarcane\, We Survived the Night interweaves oral history with hard-hitting journalism and a deeply personal father-son journey into a searing portrait of Indigenous survival\, love\, and resurgence. \n“Julian Brave NoiseCat seamlessly connects true tales of identity and betrayal\, love and abandonment\, clarity and confusion. We Survived the Night is a whirling\, radiant gift to the reader.” —Louise Erdrich\, author of The Night Watchman \nWatch the trailer for “Sugarcane” here. \nInterested in the full series?

SUMMARY:Native Voices Film Series: Screening of "The Eternal Song" with Filmmakers Zaya and Maurizio Benazzo
DESCRIPTION:The Sacred Land Film Project\, California Institute for Community\, Art & Nature\, and David Brower Center present a three-film series celebrating the 25th anniversary of “In the Light of Reverence” and featuring “Sugarcane” and “The Eternal Song.”\n\n“The Eternal Song” screening is on Monday October 26th.\n\nOverview\n\n\n\n“Bold\, authentic\, and timely.” —Dr. Sekagya Yahaya Hills \n\n\n\n\nSee final screening in Native Voices Film three-part series\, The Eternal Song\, followed by a Q&A with filmmakers Zaya and Maurizio Benazzo. \nThe Eternal Song is a cinematic journey through timeless lands and their Indigenous cultures. Voices from around the world and across generations call us to witness the deep\, ongoing scars of colonization on lands and peoples\, and the healing that comes through ancestral wisdom. Entrusted with medicine songs and stories\, we grapple with colonial legacies\, intergenerational trauma\, our own fragmentation and culture of separation. \nThe film reveals how modernity severs our connection to nature\, each other\, and the ancestral realm\, while feeding us empty promises of salvation\, unlimited consumption\, and individual happiness. As we are drawn into the intricate web of kinship and honoring the living presence of Mother Earth\, we awaken a remembrance. A sacred dance comes to life and we begin to hear the eternal song of Life itself\, calling us back to belonging. \nWatch the trailer for “The Eternal Song” here. \nInterested in the full series?
