Synopsis by Violet LeVoit

A look at the criminal underworld at the White Earth Native American Reservation in Minnesota focuses on two individuals: a gang leader in his thirties serving his fifth prison sentence, and his 17-year-old protégé. Both men are torn between their loyalty to the Native Gangster Disciples cartel and their belief in the "Seven Fires Prophecy," which states that, after years of degradation, the Ojibwe nation will rise again. Directed by Jack Pettibone Riccobono.
