Set in the early 1980s, the film begins in the homes of a small town in rural Oklahoma where many houses lack running water and others are little more than shacks. Told from the perspective of Wilma Mankiller and full-blood Cherokee organizer Charlie Soap, these leaders join forces to battle opposition and build a 16-mile waterline system using a community of volunteers.. In the process, they inspire the townspeople to trust each other, to trust their way of thinking, and to spark a reawakening of the universal indigenous values of reciprocity and interconnectedness. This project also inspired a self-help movement in Indian Country that continues to this day. The movie is dedicated to Wilma Mankiller's vision, compassion and incredible grace. 538 Mode of access: World Wide Web. 546 In English 650 0 Motion pictures. 650 0 Race relations. 655 7 Feature films.|2lcgft 700 1 Kelly, Tim,|efilmmaker. 700 1 Soap, Charlie,|efilmmaker. 710 2 Kamama Films (Firm),.|4dst 710 2 Kanopy (Firm)|4dst 914 kan1523674
