This award-winning documentary highlights the critical work of language activists, artists, youth, and elders who are leading a growing movement of urgent radical revitalization efforts to help save the Cherokee language from the brink of extinction. This film also delves into the history of the Cherokee syllabary, the destructive assimilationist legacy of boarding schools, the lasting impacts of the Trail of Tears, and the ways in which members of the Cherokee tribe reconcile their relationship to American identity.
