Honoring native traditions, "Dakota 38" is a film distributed as a gift, not for sale. It chronicles a spiritual journey of healing and reconciliation, depicting a challenging ride and the supportive communities encountered along the way.

In 2005, spiritual leader Jim Miller dreamed of the 1862 mass execution of 38 Dakota ancestors. Four years later, he and a group of riders began retracing a 330-mile horseback route from South Dakota to Mankato, Minnesota.
