Honor the Treaties is a documentary short about photographer Aaron Huey’s work on the Pine Ridge Reservation.

Ultimately, the film questions outsider’s abilities to tell accurate stories about poverty, exploitation, and history. The film will premiere at the Seattle International Film Festival, opening night for ShortsFest, May 24th. Directed by Eric Becker (weareshouting.com). Photography by Aaron Huey (aaronhuey.com).

First showing is May 24 at 7PM at the Seattle International Film Festival
