Vision Maker Media Announces Upcoming Documentary Daughter of A Lost Bird
Vision Maker Media (VMM, visionmakermedia.org) is pleased to announce that Daughter Of A Lost Bird will air as a part of America ReFramed on Nebraska Public Media beginning Thursday, May 5.
VMM partners with many PBS entities to bring Native cultures and stories to viewers everywhere. In Daughter Of A Lost Bird, viewers will follow Kendra, an adult Native adoptee, as she reconnects with her birth family, discovers her Lummi heritage, and confronts issues of her own identity. Her singular story echoes many affected by the Indian Child Welfare Act and the Indian Adoption Project.
VMM is the premier source of public media by and about Native Americans since 1976. Their mission is empowering and engaging Native people to share stories. VMM envisions a world changed and healed by understanding Native stories and the public conversations they generate. They work with VMM funded producers to develop, produce, and distribute programs for all public media. VMM supports training to increase the number of Native Americans and Alaska Natives producing public broadcasting programs. A key strategy for this work is in partnerships with Tribal nations and Native organizations and communities.
