“On Sacred Ground” directed by the talented filmmakers Josh and Rebecca Tickell distinguishes between the opposite sides of the Dakota Access Pipeline. The Standing Rock Sioux Tribe faces tragedy when their water and land is compromised by the oil companies pipeline. The Sioux tribe is represented with respect even though they are receiving derision from the other side. David Arquette and William Mapother play the two male leads who represent both sides of this story. William Mapother’s character Daniel is perceived as an Army veteran with PTSD, he has a struggling home life and not much going for him. This story could help him become something more when the opportunity of revealing honesty prevails itself. The cognitive dissonance he faces brings his morality to light giving him potential. Many thought-provoking issues are brought up in this film like, indigenous rights, protection of the environment and so much more. This motion picture deserves success, I would strongly recommend giving it a watch.
