Summary

Decades after they were driven almost to extinction, the fight to restore North America’s buffalo population continues to rage on. Activists in Indigenous communities across the continent are determined to restore the buffalo’s place on the Great Plains, knowing that they are essential to the survival of our ecosystem.

This epic and inspiring documentary not only offers a new perspective on our connection to the land, it shows us what’s possible when we come together. Singing Back the Buffalo is an essential call to take notice – and take action.
