Summary:

Florentine Films/Hott Productions, in association with The Language Conservancy, presents a new documentary project: Rising Voices. The story about the imminent peril to the Lakota language, it braids together the struggles of Lakota to learn their tribal language today, the historical attempt by the United State to annihilate the language, the rise of immersion language schools, and the participation of outsiders in the rescue of the Lakota language. History is interwoven with present-day short films about the culture, created by Lakota filmmakers and artists.
