Free Leonard Peltier at MIFF
Premiering at Sundance and winning three awards at the Thessaloniki Documentary Film Festival, Free Leonard Peltier is a rousing film charting the 50-year fight to release an icon of Native American activism from prison.
In 1975, Ojibwe/Lakota activist Leonard Peltier was involved in a shootout on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota that resulted in the deaths of two FBI agents and one Indigenous man. After a highly contentious trial involving evidence withholding and witness coercion, Peltier was convicted of murdering the FBI agents. Over the 50 years he spent in prison, Peltier maintained his innocence as many fought for his freedom, including generations of Native Americans as well as public figures like Nelson Mandela, Marlon Brando and Pope Francis.
Tickets for Free Leonard Peltier and the full MIFF program are available here.
