Hidden Medicine - Trailer

"Hidden Medicine is an experimental, mystical film that deals with the relationship between Indigenous Peoples and the environment. The story takes place in Onondaga Nation Territory with appearances by Chief Oren Lyons, Clan Mother Audrey Shenandoah, Horst Rechelbacher, Candace B. Pert and William McDonough. A young girl (Dakota René) has a dream about a traditional runner (Clint Shenandoah) who takes a crucial message from his clan to the United Nations. The film beautifully weaves story, poetry, music and politics, creating an impending sense of our planet's struggle to survive." - Sundance Film Festival

"Hidden Medicine" is a film in support of legislation pending in Congress to protect the remaining four percent of America's forests. The film is written, directed and scored by Robby Romero; co-written by Chief Oren Lyons (Faith Keeper of the Onondaga Nation and professor of Native American Studies at the University of Buffalo, New York); executive produced by Horst Rechelbacher; and produced by Roland Joffé, known for helming such films as "The Killing Fields", "The Mission", "Fat Man and Little Boy", and "Scarlet Letter".

"Hidden Medicine" screened November 23, 2000 at the United Nations in Geneva, Switzerland, and aired on Sundance Channel January 1st, 2001, with an appeal to encourage viewers to take immediate action regarding The Act to Save America's Forests and the National Forest Protection and Restoration Act. Prefaced by Robert Redford, Hidden Medicine premiered during the 1999 Sundance Film Festival.

"Hidden Medicine" is available on the CD/DVD release, "NATIVE CHILDREN'S SURVIVAL If not now, when? If not you, who?".

I can not else but agree with the comment below me. Luckily there are people who care but unfortenately they are still a minority. The mass, educated with the school system, advertisements, McDonalds and broadcasts, doesn't care much except for their own little world unless something really bad happens in their life. The education system could change a lot by informing students as well as the government can do a lot to make this planet a better place. It seems they don't care. So it is up to us.

You all speak the truth! I am ashamed to be white. The people have lost their way. If only they could hear the Natives words and visions, the world as we know it could be saved. I feel like I need to ask for forgiveness. I am sorry your people, your generations have struggled and experienced such pain. You have shown the world your strength, love and compation for mother earth. All my blessings be with you
