Spirit of the Peaks

Playing as part of the Minds Moving Mountains Speaker Series: Bridging Divides with Dr. Len Necefer Centered around skier and Hunkpapa Lakota, Connor Ryan, Spirit of the Peaks dives deep into the struggles of identity that comes with being stuck between two worlds. His mission is to connect the Ute people with the mountains that they were displaced from and work towards restoring balance through his own reciprocity. This film will call on anyone who spends time in the mountains to feel a deeper connection to the land and embrace traditional Indigenous ethics when fighting for the preservation of these sacred places.
