Red Nation Celebration Institute (“RNCI”) will be producing a powerhouse panel discussions on issues important to New Mexico and national communities: #MeToo, #WhyWeWearRed, and the urgent crisis surrounding missing and murdered Indigenous Women
RNCI is also bringing major Hollywood releases to town, as well as showcasing “New Mexico True” films featuring the work of the New Mexico film community. The festival will be held during Indian Market week beginning on August 14, 2018, running through August 19th. The majority of the films speak to major social justice movements sweeping the country, as well as currentcataclysmic changes in the American political landscape.
"We worked diligently to curate films that would explore important topics. My own film careerbegan with casting a harsh light on the American Holocaust--the slaughter of 100 millionIndigenous people,"
"Continuing in this vein, we found that cinematic depictions of strife across the American landscape--from Standing Rock to Santa Fe—is an important way to address modern societal problems. Documentaries like 'The Doctrine of Discovery' and 'Veiled Lightning' are helping to cast light on dark subjects,"
