As we prepared to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the Sacred Land Film Project, we reflected on the generosity and wisdom of four indigenous elders, now revered ancestors, who trusted us to tell their story. Thomas Banyacya (Hopi), Vine Deloria, Jr. (Lakota), Florence Jones (Winnemem Wintu) and Dr. Noa Emmett Aluli (Kānaka Maoli) shared their thoughts, values and stories with us and we thank them with this short film of remembrance to honor our collaboration.

Remembering, with deep sadness, the brilliant Dr. Noa Emmett Aluli, who passed away in 2022. Emmett helped us tell the story of the Protect Kaho`olawe Ohana's 50-year campaign to stop the bombing of a sacred Hawaiian island and to restore both the island and Native Hawaiian cultural practices.
