Seen on WNET-PBS, In Canada on APTN, and at over 20 film festivals, you can now own the award-winning film the Austin Chronicle calls "The stuff dreams - and nightmares - are made of".
This silent documentary with an original score was filmed through the eye of a 1924 hand-crank spring-wound Cine-Kodak camera. This film features Terry 'Coyote' Murphy representing the Native American influence of the isle of Manhattan.
Coyote, a Shaman Trail Scout, takes a journey which transcends time, weaving from Inwood Park (where the island was traded for beads & booze), down a long native path (now called 'the great white way', more commonly known as 'Broadway'), to the lower reaches of Manhattan into 'ground zero' (which is now a sacred burial ground for not just the American Indian & the slaves of yesteryear, but for the newest natives of this island empire as well).
"Native New Yorker" - shot before, during and after 9/11 - took several years of filming, with a running time of 13 minutes this is a film by Steve Bilich with an original score composed by William Susman.
