Description

The Business of Fancydancing - DVD - Since their high school graduation, former Spokane Reservation best friends Seymour (Evan Adams, Smoke Signals) and Aristotle (Gene Tagaban) have taken different paths. Both ventured off to college in Seattle, but while Seymour embraced the opportunities of the white world, Aristotle returned home embittered. Sixteen years later, they are brought together following the sudden death of an old childhood buddy. Seymour, now an openly gay poet and unofficial spokesman for Native Americans, is met with resentment on "the rez." At the wake, tensions are heightened, and Aristotle's long festering bitterness is dangerously exposed. Written, directed and featuring poetic works by best-selling author Sherman Alexie (The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian and Smoke Signals), The Business of Fancydancing is a powerful story of growth, death, and the choices that define us all. Run time: 1 hour and 43 minutes Rated: NR
