Chiefs

It's been seven years since the Wyoming Indian High School Chiefs have won a state championship in basketball.  For most schools, this is a rather unremarkable statistic.  But for the inhabitants of the Wind River Indian Reservation, who have experienced a century and a half of injustice, basketball is a form of empowerment, self-expression, and access to the world outside "the rez".  By using basketball as a vehicle, "Chiefs" explores what it means to grow up Native American at the turn of the 21st century.
