lack of exposure...

Was the primary reason this film faltered. Yes it could have used more funding and maybe some guidance from a few professional script writers, but it was, and is, a valiant first effort! Unfortunately, I only saw this film aired once during some Robert Redford Film Festival week celebrating Native American Films, and that was when the film first came out Iin 1998!!!
Put it on the air. Give it the exposure it deserves!
