Kevin Willmott Film Festival: The Only Good Indian

Come celebrate Prof. Kevin Willmott's film career by seeing his films on the big screen at Liberty Hall! We'll be screening four of his films with post-screening discussions. 

In the early 1900's a Native American boy escapes from a training camp and a Cherokee bounty hunter (Wes Studi), who has adopted the white man's way of life, is sent to find him. A tragic incident spurs the bounty hunter's nemesis, a famous Indian fighter, to search for him and the boy.
