THE MYSTERY OF NOW Dir. Audrey Buchanan (2019) 16min

Artist and APACHE Skateboards founder, Douglas Miiles shares socio-political
context around the history that lead to life on the San Carlos Apache
reservation, and the personal history of how and why he started a skateboard
brand and team of local youth leaders. His advice on cultivating resilience,
creativity, and joy, provides guidance in a time that for many feels
uncertain, polarizing and divisive in our living rooms and around our dinner
tables.

 

LEGACY OF EXILED NDNZ Dir. Pamela J Peters (2104) 14min

Trailer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=laGVfN17IME 

Documents the lives of young American Indians currently living in Los
Angeles, California, while functioning as a tribute to the first generation
of relocated (exiled) Indians as mandated by the United States Congress
through the Relocation Act and managed by the Bureau of Indian Affairs'
(BIA) starting in the 1950s.

 

THE EXILES Dir. Kent Mackenzie (1961) 72min

THE EXILES chronicles one night in the lives of young Native American men
and women living in the Bunker Hill district of Los Angeles. Based entirely
on interviews with the participants and their friends, the film follows a
group of exiles - transplants from Southwest reservations - as they flirt,
drink, party, fight, and dance.

 

Filmmaker Kent Mackenzie first conceived of The Exiles during the making of
his short film Bunker Hill-1956 while a student at the University of
Southern California. In July 1957, Mackenzie began to hang around with some
of the young Indians in downtown Los Angeles. After a couple of months, he
broached the subject of making a film that would present a realistic
portrayal of Indian life in the community.
