ABOUT THE FILM

NARRATED BY

Quannah ChasingHorse and Edward Norton

DIRECTED BY

Mary Mazzio

BAD RIVER, narrated by activist and model Quannah ChasingHorse and Academy-Award nominee, Edward Norton; written and directed by award-winning filmmaker, Mary Mazzio; and produced by Grant Hill (Owner of the Atlanta Hawks) and Allison Abner (writer for Narcos, West Wing), is a new documentary film which chronicles the Wisconsin-based Bad River Band and its ongoing fight for sovereignty, through a series of shocking revelations, devastating losses, and a powerful legacy of defiance and resilience. The project brings us through an epic sweep of history into the present, with a David vs. Goliath battle to save Lake Superior, the largest freshwater resource in America. As Eldred Corbine, a Bad River Tribal Elder declares: “We gotta protect it… die for it, if we have to.”

Called “a powerful chronicle” by Bill McKibben (writer for The New Yorker), profoundly moving” by film critic Liz Braun, “a 10 out of 10” by film critic Vincent Schilling, and “brilliant” by David Corn at Mother Jones, the film is executive produced by Mato Wayuhi (Reservation Dogs), Taylor Hensel (Reservation Dogs, Reciprocity Project), Victor Lopez-Carmen (former co-chair of the UN’s Indigenous Youth Caucus), Tracy Rector (Reciprocity Project), and Alec Sokolow (Toy Story), along with Arthur M. Blank, Tamia Hill, MC McCall, Bill Hudson, Bryan White, Chris White, Bill McNabb, Katie McNabb, Bruce Herring, Tricia Herring, and Jay Ruderman.
