NMAI’s Native Cinema Showcase online
This year the collection of Native films by the Smithsonian Institution’s National Museum of the American Indian includes 35 films from six different countries.

A selected list of films in the Native Cinema Showcase is going online free of charge. The films include a documentary about a young Navajo woman exploring the source of environmental threats on the Navajo Nation and a dramatic account of a woman’s interaction with a Maori stranger.
