THE FILM:
https://www.thecreationstory.co/
In the summer of 2022, Jasper Young Bear, a member of the Mandan,
Hidatsa and Arikara Nation, invited three friends from outside of his
community to a unique ceremonial offering that took place in a medicine
lodge on the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation, North Dakota. Across
three days, Jasper tells his people’s Creation Story, a story as old as
time immemorial itself.
Previously preserved and passed down
the generations in an oral tradition that Jasper was born into, his
reasons for committing it to film for the first time in history soon
become apparent, and are as urgent and pertinent as the story itself.
The
result is a film like no other. Primarily a kind of ethnographic record
that will preserve this story for the ages, it has now been
thoughtfully married to a cinematic experience, to create a new kind of
genre — a medicine film.
