This year marks the 24th season of the RNCI Red Nation International Film Festival (RNIFF) which showcases features, documentaries, and shorts. These films are produced by emerging and established American Indian filmmakers from the heart of Indian Country and International Indigenous Nations.
Red Nation is dedicated to increasing the visibility of American Indians, Indigenous storytellers, and artists in the entertainment landscape. RNIFF screens films and holds events for more consecutive days than any other film festival, including Tribeca, Sundance, TIFF, AFI and Festival de Cannes.
