Spirit of the Wind (1979)
Is this movie available for viewing?
I saw this movie in the theater shortly after it was released but then saw it again several years later on a VHS tape. I would love to find a copy of the movie in any format to see it again (and would love to hear from anyone who can guide me to a copy.) As a physician with the Indian Health Service at the PHS Hospital in Tanana, AK in 1972-74, I was fortunate enough to meet George Attla several times and see him race at the dog sled races in Tanana. I knew his sister, Rose Attla Ambrose (the village Health Aide in Huslia)who played his mother in the film and visited Huslia several times. I'd recommend the movie to anyone who wanted to see realistic glimpses of Alaska village life, to learn more about George Attla, and see the historic use of Native American actors portraying Native Americans!
