Mankiller is a compelling doc that dives into the life of Wilma Mankiller, the first woman Principal Chief of the Cherokee Nation. It’s raw and intimate, with a pacing that allows you to really soak in her journey against a backdrop of systemic challenges. Valerie Red-Horse’s direction feels personal; she doesn’t shy away from showing the struggles, but also the resilience of Mankiller’s spirit. The interviews are candid, and the archival footage gives a real sense of history. The film has this earthy quality, almost like you’re sitting down with the stories over coffee. Definitely shines a light on indigenous leadership and activism without glossing over the tough spots. Worth collecting for anyone interested in activism or Native American history.
