14 Native American films made by Native filmmakers from Oklahoma

Oklahoman
For more than a century, cinema has been a favored American way to tell stories of different peoples and cultures.
But the mainstream movie industry hasn't always treated Native American stories fairly or authentically.
"If you look at Native representation in history, it's been pretty bad. So, almost showing any truthful, real version of Native people is humanizing. ... I think anytime we show Native people kind of on their terms and in their environments, we're humanizing (them) on the screen and we're changing the narrative that history has kind of laid on us — history and Hollywood," said Sterlin Harjo, a Seminole and Muscogee (Creek) filmmaker, native Oklahoman and film festival favorite, in a 2020 interview.
