Windtakers – Rated R

During WWII, two U.S. Marines are assigned to protect two Navajo Marines code talkers. These men know a secret radio code that is much valuable than their individual lives.

The Briscoe Western Art Museum’s Native Film Series showcases a selection of unique films that feature original and diverse indigenous stories.  Guests will get a deeper look into life in the Southwest in conjunction with our latest exhibit Storytellers: Narrative Art & the West.

All films were directed, written, produced by, and/or star Native Americans.

This film is part of a series curated by Matthew Davila, a proud member of the Standing Rock Lakota Sioux Tribe. Matthew will offer a brief presentation before each film, providing insights into the significance of the stories being told and their cultural impact.

Thanks to the generous donation of Matthew Davila, curator of the Native American Film Series, we’re able to offer free admission to the remaining films.

Join us in celebrating this gift and enjoy these meaningful screenings at no cost!
