Special NYU screening of the critically acclaimed documentary The Seventh Fire
** 2016 New York Times Critics' Pick **
When gang leader Rob Brown is sentenced to prison for a fifth time, he must confront his role in bringing violent drug culture into his beloved American Indian community in northern Minnesota. As Rob reckons with his past, his seventeen-year-old protégé, Kevin, dreams of the future: becoming the most powerful and feared Native gangster on the reservation.
Executive Producers Terrence Malick, Natalie Portman, and Chris Eyre present this haunting and unflinching film about Native American gangs and the criminal justice system.
Post-screening discussion with Director Jack Riccobono ('03) moderated by Faye Ginsburg, NYU Professor of Anthropology.
