the light grey people

a trailerish glimpse, our most recent work

the song is in the Lipan language and it is by Roberto Soto, the man in blue who you see first. this was on the opening day of the Lipan Apache Museum in the Sunrise Mall in Chorpus Christi. the other footage is from archive.org. wednesday we go to interview Bernard, the big man with a mustache, who is in black and one of the four playing the drum, in San Antonio. this weekend we go to McAllen, TX to film a Pow Wow and Roberto's buffalo farm. Tom Castillo is another central character and he can be seen standing behind the four playing the drum. i don't know the name of the man in turquoise or the man in white.

Such a great moment was captured. I saw Daniel working on this late last night, and caught a glimpse of the footage and already I wanted to keep watching. Can't wait to see more.
