S2 Ep10 - Jeffrey Palmer - Kiowa Filmmaker
In this episode we met with Jeffrey Palmer, a Kiowa filmmaker whose path is as unique as his storytelling. From his early days at the University of Oklahoma, where a chance encounter with ethnographic films sparked his passion, to his groundbreaking work at Sundance, Jeff's story is one of perseverance and creativity. He provided us with a look at his work in academia and we learned about his dedication as an instructor to help aspiring film students reach their potential through the creation of vibrant films. We also discovered how his commitment to authentic storytelling, particularly within Native American communities, has shaped his career and led to acclaimed projects like N. Scott Momaday: Words from a Bear. Jeff's experiences highlight the importance of who tells the story and the power of film to preserve cultural heritage.
