Neither Wolf Nor Dog: Film Screening

This landmark Native American film is based on the critically-acclaimed memoir of the same name by Kent Nerburn and co-stars Lakota Elder Dave Bald Eagle, who was 95-years-old during filming. Excerpt from the book's description:"Against an unflinching backdrop of 1990s reservation life and the majestic spaces of the western Dakotas, Neither Wolf nor Dog tells the story of two men, one white and one Indian, locked in their own
understandings yet struggling to find a common voice... tak[ing] us past the myths and stereotypes of the Native American experience, revealing an America few ever see."  Stay
