Red Lake students make films

Red Lake Project Preserve:  Students slated to premier two new film documentariesStudents in Project Preserve, a special program at Red Lake High School, have traditionally scripted, acted and filmed a movie each year.

Often, the films relate to the growing pains of youth. But the Class of 2007 and Class of 2008 were commissioned to film documentaries.

The 2007 film, titled “Red Lake–The Sacred Heart of Our people,” and the 2008 film, titled “Maamakaadenbaagwad–Miracle of the Walleye,” will be premiered from 5-7 p.m. today at the Red Lake High School Mini Theater. A feast at the Red Lake Middle School cafeteria will follow the screenings.Comment:  For more on the subject, see Culture Kills in Red Lake Tragedy.
