Short Documentary from Standing Rock by Michaela Ravasio

I spent a week and a half at Standing Rock listening to the stories of the water protectors — it was an unexpectedly emotional, eye-opening, and humbling experience on every level.

My intention with this short film is to raise awareness about the depth of this movement, and give a louder voice to the people who have dedicated their lives to it.
