Beyond Standing Rock

Energy, environment and tribal control

Directed by
Runtime
71 min
Documentary

Synopsis

Taking viewers straight to the front lines of the Dakota Access Pipeline battle, Beyond Standing Rock is a one-hour documentary that captures multiple facets in its short run time. The filmmakers explore the conflict of against the Pipeline and the struggle for Native American rights against the backdrop of the new Trump administration. But the story is more than just the specific struggle to stop the movement of oil across tribal lands, it is also a story of the endless conflict between the U. S. government and the tribes, of a continued pattern of broken promises, and the impact of oil on the environment. With beautiful cinematography, insightful interviews and a willingness to confront all of the issues, Beyond Standing Rock is a startling look at one of the most pressing issues of the day.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 6

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
