Bring Them Home

**Finger Lakes Environmental Film Festival Screening — Sat. April 5, 1 PM** Bring Them Home examines the deeply meaningful role that buffalo played in Blackfeet life prior to the arrival of settlers who nearly eradicated wild buffalo in an effort to eradicate the Blackfeet people. For Blackfeet, the buffalo are seen not only as fundamental to a healthy ecosystem, but as spiritual relatives. Their removal from the land meant the loss of the Blackfeet way of life, the trauma of which still reverberates today. In the present, the film focuses on Ervin Carlson, director of the Blackfeet Buffalo Program and Paulette Fox, co-creator of the Iinnii Initiative, who join forces with non-native conservation groups, such as the Wildlife Conservation Society of New York City, who recognize the buffalo as a keystone species not only for Blackfeet lands, but for North America’s ecological stability.
