Co-Productions Twin Cities PBS’s co-funded Legacy projects leverage Legacy funding and partnerships to amplify arts, cultural, and history initiatives across Minnesota. In FY22, TPT collaborated with co-funding partners to develop, produce, and deliver digital and broadcast programming that made an impact around important social issues, like the epidemic of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women in our state. BRING HER HOME Premiere Date: March 21st, 2022 Nationally on PBS ▫ (1) 60 minute documentary ▫ (4) 90 second short snapshot lifts and ▫ (1) extended trailer (120 seconds) ▫ (1) 30 second promo ▫ (1) virtual event with special guest of the Director Leya Hale and the women featured in the documentary (90 minutes) ▫ (1) Education Guide ▫ (1) community screening kit DESCRIPTION: OUTPUTS: Bring Her Home follows three Indigenous women — an artist, an activist and a politician — as they work to vindicate and honor their relatives who are victims in the growing epidemic of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women. As they face the lasting effects of historical trauma, each woman searches for healing while navigating the oppressive systems that brought about this very crisis.
IMPACT: Bring Her Home had massive impact, not only in the State of Minnesota, but also internationally, as the epidemic of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women is a global crisis. The film uplifted the work and strong personal stories of key Indigenous women living in Minnesota through its well-received national broadcast and screenings at over 30 film festivals around the world. Producers have made the film, educational guide, and additional materials available to the public to empower community members to facilitate their own events and spaces of learning and healing. Finally, the creation of the film further helps to combat the erasure of Indigenous stories by reaffirming the lived experiences of Indigenous peoples in Minnesota and the powerful work they are doing for our state.
