      abstract = {Harriet Skye, a 61-year old Lakota woman from the Standing  Rock, ND Reservation, just graduated N.Y.U. Film School.  This film is about her pilgrimage back to her people.  Having seen Indians misrepresented in the media, she wanted  to produce honest, realistic portrayals of her tribe. She  visits United Tribes Community College where the principal,  David Gipp, describes the 'Spirit Program,' a course where  students learn about their tradition. We see the Sioux  Tribal Council in session discussing the high unemployment  rate which has a depressive effect on the community.  Harriett was allowed to film the very private Sweat  Ceremony held in her honor. She sees how the U.S.  Government dam on the Missouri River flooded prime land on  the reservation and concludes: 'The 'Custer mentality' is  alive and well. They don't use guns anymore; they come in  three-piece suits and use the law, the water. The only  things that has helped us is that we hung on to our belief  system. That's why we're still here today.'},
