Two acclaimed documentaries by local filmmaker
Anne Makepeace
We Still Live Here Âs Nutayuneân
The remarkable saga of the cultural revival of the Wampanoag of Southeastern Massachusetts. Their ancestors ensured the survival of the Pilgrims in New England and lived to regret it. Now they are bringing their language home again.
"There is nothing I know that's anything like the Wampanoag case."
-- Noam Chomsky
Coming to Light
The dramatic story of the life of Edward S. Curtis, the creation of his monumental photographic work, and his changing views of the people he set out to document. Hopi, Navajo, Cupig, Blackfeet, Piegan, Suquamish and Kwakiutl people, many of them descended from Curtis's subjects, tell stories about the people in Curtis's photographs, and discuss the meaning of the images from their own perspectives.
"A beautifully-crafted epic." -- David Ansen, Newsweek |

She came of age in NYC's dance clubs and Disco era, and she loves nothing more than getting you gleefully on the dance floor. You can hear her house mixes every Friday night @10pm on robinhoodradio.com. Starts at Nine. Goes to Midnight. Go dancing after dinner right here in Ancram!
