This beautifully made adaptation of Kent Nerburn's acclaimed bestseller features a wonderfully nuanced central performance from 97 year-old Chief Dave Bald Eagle as Dan, a Lakota elder who with his best friend (the equally charismatic Richard Ray Whitman) lure author Nerburn (Christopher Sweeney) on a road trip to help make him understand contemporary Native American life. Dave Bald Eagle's memorable monologues give the film – directed by Scot Steven Lewis Simpson – real compassion and resonance. (Edinburgh International Film Festival)
