An investigative journey into the heartbeat of Indian Country. This film is about what it means to be Indian in the new millennium whilst dealing with the established prejudices, ignorance and portrayal by mainstream media with respect to people of color.
From the Neanderthal to the modern European this film charts the arrival of the Europeans into the western hemisphere and illustrates how their cultures and their systems would impact the lives of native people and continue to do so in today’s society.
With haunting insights and voices of contemporary native people, this film is about discovering the truth behind the identity and reality as portrayed by mainstream media.
“ Its like bringing pieces of a jigsaw puzzle and letting the intelligence of viewers put these pieces together”
This film is an anthem for those whose voices need to be heard and for those global audiences who still do not understand the cultures of the Americas.
By using a series of diverse film clips and archive provided by artists and filmmakers, ‘Coloring the Media’ is an important and necessary truth for those wishing to undertake a journey of discovery.
