Award-winning director Bruce McDonald’s earthy First Nations drama has gained a reputation as a pow wow for emerging talent like Adam Beach (Flags of Our Fathers, Windtalkers, Law and Order: Special Victim’s Unit) and Jennifer Podemski (Degrassi:The Next Generation).
Silas Crow (Ryan Black) and Frank Fencepost (Beach) are two average 18 year olds who live on a reservation in Northern Ontario. They hope to get into a Toronto mechanic’s school, but must write a story for their entrance exam first. The whole community i then shocked when one of their friends is killed by a drunken punk at a local hangout. When he gets out of jail, they plan revenge.
The 1995 slice of Native Canadian life was a landmark ensemble piece that opened eyes to life on the modern reserve. Based on a story by W.P. Kinsella, the offbeat drama mixes growing pains with crime and old fashioned tribal justice. Dance Me Outside was a breakthrough film when it hit theatres and was an inspiration for the CBC TV series The Rez, also directed by McDonald.
