Dreamer

Institute History

  • 2000 Sundance Film Festival

Description

Dreamer is an experimental narrative that views the course o f human history through the eyes of an elder in the seventeenth century. His vision shows the tragedies humanity will face in the centuries to come. The elder, played by Saginaw Grant in a timeless and powerful way, questions the possibility of such demise. The Great Spirit responds with the gift of understanding and ceremony. Dreamer is beautifully shot and directed by first-time filmmaker Raymond Spiess.
