FLIFF and the Native Reel Film Festival present this riveting documentary detailing the case of Mary Ellen Johnson-Davis, a Native American woman who disappeared in 2020. Her story exposes how hundreds of indigenous women continue to go missing in the USA, perpetuating trans-generational trauma on Indian reservations.
We are honored to welcome the esteemed Festival Director, Everett Osceola, and Assistant Director, Iretta Tiger, who will provide a short introduction before the screening. Their words will illuminate the cultural significance of this special occasion, enriching our understanding and appreciation of the featured film “Missing From Fire Trail Road.”
