βNative American Documentary Reservation Redemption Highlights Cultural Healing and Prison Reformβ Filmmakers Brenda Fisher (Yakama by Descent) and Blake Pickens (Chickasaw) have teamed up to create Reservation Redemption, a film that delves into the over-incarceration of Native Americans, specifically in Washington State. This project not only tells a powerful story but also emphasizes the role of culture and spiritual healing in addressing systemic challenges faced by Native people. The documentary follows the journey of Chief Marchand Rice (Colville), a man sentenced to life in prison as a teenager for murder. What makes his story remarkable is the transformation he underwent during his time in prison.
