"Killsback tells this story from the people's perspective, offering a tribal view that would have been impossible to capture from the outside looking in. The movie is an inspiring story of survival and reveals the hope for positive change." Steve Delgado (UANews)

"The film adheres to a Ken Burns-style documentary format. It relies upon breath-taking landscape shots and captivating period photographs, along with a haunting traditional music score to set the mood and establish its themes." Luke Powers (Indigenous Peoples Issues & Resources )
