REISTERSTOWN, MD — The Maryland Horse Library & Education Center will screen "Dakota 38" on Friday, Nov. 13, in recognition of Native American Heritage Month.
The event runs from 6 to 8 p.m. at 321 Main St., with doors opening at 5:45 p.m. Free parking is available.
Released in 2012, the documentary follows a 2008 330-mile horseback journey from Lower Brule, South Dakota, to Mankato, Minnesota, honoring 38 Dakota men executed in 1862. Inspired by a dream experienced by Native spiritual leader and Vietnam veteran Jim Miller, the film explores healing and reconciliation as riders face winter storms and receive support from native and non-native communities along the route.
The film won Best Documentary and the People's Choice Award at the 2014 Flathead Lake International Cinemafest. Its other honors include a special jury award at the 2012 Minneapolis-St. Paul International Film Festival and an audience award at that year's Frozen River Film Festival. Registration information is available on the event page.
