In this film, actor Casey Affleck and hip hop artist Sol Guy visit the Pawnee Nation of Oklahoma. They meet Crystal Echo Hawk and NVision, an outreach organization working on and off the rez to empower Native youth by reinforcing traditional values.
The guests interview tribal members and hang out with the local kids, getting different perspective of what it means to be a Pawnee. They get a crash-course in Pawnee history from the time of the removals, to the boarding school era, to the issues being faced by modern reservations.
