Itam Hakim Hopiit - PREVIEW

Purchase: http://der.org/films/itam-hakim-hopiit.html The critically acclaimed Itam Hakim Hopiit was produced in the Hopi language and subtitled in English. Michael Renov writes, " ...The film offers a cultural bridge of a very different kind, evoking a culture and an environment through the look and sound of it and the fluidly majestic pace of its unfolding...to impart the drama of distant rainstorms across desert landscapes or cause one to gasp in astonishment at the rainbow that enters the frame during a revelatory pan, for indeed the lyricism of Masayesva Jr.'s imagery and the tone of reverence for the earth, whose caretakers the Hopi consider themselves to be, has the power to transport the viewer."
