The Story

Tribal Waters

A Patagonia Film, directed by Fish Camp Founder, Jon Klaczkiewicz

The Wind River runs deep for the Eastern Shoshone and Northern Arapaho Tribes. They pray alongside the river. They pray for the river. They pray with the river.

But what happens when your river is hijacked by a ruthless system that would stop at nothing to control the resource? Tribal Waters, a documentary film directed by Jon Klaczkiewicz, traces the Wind River as it winds through a history of stolen ancestral lands, insatiable agricultural demands and the American justice system, in the hopes of a future built on a sustainable, outdoor-based recreational economy.
