Native Eyes Film Showcase 2009

November 12–15, 2009

The 6th annual showcase features an array of contemporary Native American films and discussions with filmmakers. Native Eyes brings the best of new cinema made by the most talented indigenous filmmakers today. This year’s films tell stories of love, memory, activism and culture, and offer provocative ideas about social responsibility, attachment to place and what determines identity. Screenings occur at Grand Cinemas Crossroads, 4811 E Grant Road, $5.00 tickets available at box office beginning Nov 11th. Other, related programs occur at Arizona State Museum and are free.

Native Eyes Film Showcase is presented by Arizona State Museum and the UA's Hanson Film Institute in collaboration with the Smithsonian's National Museum of the American Indian. Native Eyes was made possible in part by a grant from the Arizona Humanities Council and with additional support from the Law College Association and the Indigenous Peoples Law & Policy Program at the James E. Rogers College of Law.
