Showtimes & Past Screenings

Abandoned cars rest silently in fields for decades, still holding secret conversations within their bodies. Starring an all-native cast, Tantoo Cardinal (dances with Wolves) and Gary Farmer (Dead Man) are unseen ghosts breathing life into pivotal moments of sex, birth, and death.

The Northwest Film Center recognizes and honors the Indigenous peoples of this region on whose ancestral lands the museum now stands. These include the Willamette Tumwater, Clackamas, Kathlemet, Molalla, Multnomah and Watlala Chinook Peoples and the Tualatin Kalapuya who today are part of the Confederated Tribes of Grand Ronde, and many other Native communities who made their homes along the Columbia River. We also want to recognize that Portland today is a community of many diverse Native peoples who continue to live and work here. We respectfully acknowledge and honor all Indigenous communities—past, present, future—and are grateful for their ongoing and vibrant presence.
