Standing Silent Nation
(2007, 53 min.) Director: Suree Towfighnia
In an attempt to grow a sustainable farm crop on the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota, Alex White Plume's family planted industrial hemp, the non-psychoactive relative of marijuana – legally grown under tribal law. Armed and armored federal agents subsequently raided and destroyed the crop and served White Plume with federal civil charges. Filmed over four years, Standing Silent Nations tells the story of this Lakota family's struggle to retain tribal identity and tribal sovereignty against the odds of history and current government policy.
