SYNOPSIS
On the Navajo reservation, a group of scientists, elders and native activists are working to protect a vital space on a vast contaminated area in the Diné Bikeyah, the sacred land of the Navajo. In this region, 523 unremediated mines are scattered over an area the size of West Virginia. Uranium, for millions of years to come, is a very real demon that must be confronted today.
With Hadley Austin, Yoni Goldstein, Dr. Tommy Rock, Julian Flavin in attendance.
