Poet, musician, orator, actor, activist, and American hero,
John Trudell has been fearless in confronting difficult realities
that exist in our history and culture. Trudell was a leader of
the American Indian Movement, and, more recently, one of rock-and-roll's
most distinctive talents. Filmmaker Heather Rae (Cherokee) skillfully
weaves together archival footage, impressionistic scenes, a deeply
affecting soundtrack, and interviews with Kris Kristofferson,
Robert Redford, Jackson Browne, and Gary Farmer, who calls Trudell
"our Socrates."
