Released in 2002, Chiefs is a notable film directed by Daniel Junge.

What it’s about. It's been seven years since the Wyoming Indian High School Chiefs have won a state championship in basketball. For most schools, this is a rather unremarkable statistic. But for the inhabitants of the Wind River Indian Reservation, who have experienced a century and a half of injustice, basketball is a form of empowerment, self-expression, and access to the world outside "the Rez." By using basketball as a vehicle, CHIEFS explores what it means to grow up Native American at the turn of the 21st century.

How it landed. With an audience score of 6.0/10, Chiefs has drawn a solid, mixed-to-positive response.
