Summary:This fascinating and sensitive film focuses on professor Triloki Nath Pandey, an Indian from South Asia, who the Zuni Indians of New Mexico allowed to conduct ethnographic research, after an embargo of several decades. Along with many details of everyday life, The Road to Zuni focuses on the tribe's court cases of the 1980s in which Pandey's service as an expert witness helped the Zuni reclaim thousands of acres of their confiscated land. This film will appeal equally to those who wish to learn more about contemporary Native Americans and their often fraught relationships with anthropologists. --Ira Jacknis, Phoebe A.
