THIS LAND: Eye Opening, Awe-Inspiring Award-Winning Short Film Documentary Telling the Incredible Story of Ganienkeh, a Sovereign Mohawk Community in Upstate New York

Poignant and timely. An awe-inspiring, must-watch for those interested in – and those who should be interested in – social justice, real American history and the power of grassroots movements to make things happen positively. The film does not blink at the violence and menace perpetrated by non-Native Americans nor does it shrink from it but the footnotes shouldn’t be ignored. Filmmaker Mike Bradley offers viewers the rare opportunity to engage with a powerhouse cinematic narrative of resistance, cultural preservation and the ongoing struggle for indigenous rights.

“Auditorium Movendum Caveat Ab Hoc Cinematographico”: This film is flushed with graphic depictions of shredded jaws, self-harm and flagellation and reproach, physical cruelty, human combustion and other horrors.

BEFORE YOU (2025) A Pièce de Résistance by Award-Winning Director Laura Melinda – Part 1
