Library will screen the Jury Award Winning “2012 Best Documentary” Racing
the Rez by Brian Truglio,
local filmmaker from Somerville, Massachusetts. This film fused Tuglio’s passion
for running with strong connections to the people and culture of the Navajo
Nation in Arizona. Racing the Rez is a
documentary that tells the story of Navajo and Hopi runners from two rival high school cross country
teams in northern Arizona who are fighting for a state championship. Shot
over two years, it focuses on how the sport impacts the lives of five boys
growing up on the reservation and helps them confront the challenges they face
on and off the course. Truglio will be present for a discussion
following the screening. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aaXL7bUv1dc
