Through poignant stories from tribes across the U.S., director Sanjay Rawal (Food Chains) explores the growing food sovereignty movement among Native Americans that is a direct response to this appropriation and decimation of their food and health. With sweeping cinematography, Gather is a beautiful triptych of inspiring personal tales, from a White Mountain Apache chef starting his own restaurant with a staff of Natives bouncing back from addiction to a young man in Northern California’s determined fishing quest after a dam kills off his tribe’s supply of salmon. Gather is a testament to the resilience of these communities, showcasing how Native Americans are reclaiming control of their ancestral food systems and, in the process, restoring their cultural well-being.
