Product Desc: Product Description
In the years following the American Civil War, a hard-fought Sioux resistance to western expansion, led by warrior and healer Sitting Bull, seemed to have accomplished the impossible: a treaty in which the United States gave the Sioux control of their territory for all time. However, the potential to harvest the riches of all the western plains, expecially gold, soon proved more important to the nation than honoring the treaty. This 2 DVD set chronicles the life and legacy of a remarkable native leader that the U.S. government regarded as a stubborn and dangerous obstacle. His living descendants are the storytellers of this blend of documentary and re-enactment revealing an alternative and essential history of North America. Produced by the National Film Board of Canada.
