Life On The Reservation
 
This movie Life On The  Reservation is a personal documentary about “our lives”.  It is our response to all the negative, uninformed opinions people have made about young people living on Leech Lake Reservation.  Our goal was to make a movie that would give people a chance to see who we are and what we value.  

We all worked together on this video.  It took us almost a whole year to finish it.  We did all the videotaping, interviews, and narration.  We each took turns editing and somehow it turned out to be a story that really is about us.
