"The Jingle Dress" - COMING MARCH 7th TO BEMIDJI'S CHIEF THEATER

Desert Storm veteran John Red Elk gets word from his relatives that his long lost Uncle Norton is dead and vows to go down to the big city to find out what really happened to him.

At its heart 'The Jingle Dress' is an immigrant story of an Ojibwe family that moves from the rural setting of a Reservation in northern Minnesota down to the heart of the urban 'hood' of Minneapolis.

We follow the Red Elk family as they discover this new culture and through their experiences and unvarnished perspective we are able to view our own culture with fresh eyes, as well as gain insight into their ancient, indigenous society.
