Synopsis

TRUDELL follows the life work of Native American poet/activist John Trudell. Filmmaker Heather Rae has spent more than a decade chronicling his travels, spoken word and politics in a poetic and naturally stylized manner.

The film combines archival, concert and interview footage with abstract imagery mirroring the coyote nature of Trudell himself.
