“Bring Them Home tells the story of a small group of Blackfoot people and their mission to establish the first wild buffalo herd on their ancestral territory since the species’ near-extinction a century ago, an act that would restore the land, re-enliven traditional culture and bring much needed healing to their community. Blackfeet culture, spirituality, and livelihoods are inextricably connected to buffalo, as are the grasslands. Without buffalo roaming there is no healthy prairie, and the Blackfeet, the original stewards of the land, will be forever without an important piece of their history. Through a mix of Indigenous and western storytelling, Bring Them Home shows what it means through the eyes of Indigenous Peoples to live in relationship with animals and with the land, to appreciate buffalo as wildlife, and educates all audiences about the importance of rewilding buffalo and indigenous-led efforts of conservation.”
