Institute History
Description
Hozho of Native Women is an inspiring and strength-filled video about a Native women’s wellness conference. Hozho is a Navajo concept for living a beautiful and balanced life. Just as the buffalo linked the tribes of the Plains, so the salmon unite the tribes of the Northwest culturally and politically. Northwest treaties were forged to protect the “usual and accustomed places” where the tribes maintained their food base and spiritual traditions. Profiling the courage of individual Northwest Indians, many of whom fought lifelong battles to uphold treaty rights, is the focus of Usual and Accustomed Places.

As you use our Online Archives, please understand that the information presented from Festivals, Labs, and other activities is taken directly from official publications from each year. While this information is limited and doesn't necessarily represent the full list of participants (e.g. actors and crew), it is the list given to us by the main film/play/project contact at the time, based on the space restrictions of our publications. Each entry in the Online Archives is meant as a historical record of a particular film, play, or project at the time of its involvement with Sundance Institute. For this reason, we can only amend an entry if a name is misspelled, or if the entry does not correctly reflect the original publication.
