Sundance 2023

When an indigenous woman, Tawi, goes missing and the authorities (FBI, etc.) don't care enough to thoroughly investigate, her sister, Jax (Lily Gladstone), is left to take matters into her own hands. With Tawi's teen daughter, Roki (Isabel Deroy-Olson), in tow, Jax has to balance Roki's hope of reuniting with Tawi with the stark reality that Jax's quest is very likely just to confirm that Tawi is dead and, at the very least, they can find some closure. Gladstone and Deroy-Olson are both remarkable in this touching and tragic road trip drama highlighting the missing Indigenous women's epidemic. Well worth checking out.
