    Demonstration of Indianness #31

    uploaded by: imagineNATIVE Film Festival Curated Collection

    channel: imagineNATIVE Film + Media Arts Festival

    Demonstration of Indianness #31 is a short experimental film based on old home movies that the artist's grandfather shot in the 50's. The film is as much a portrait of a struggle and a declaration of identity, as it is a questioning into the history of documentation and anthropology.
