Watch MARCH POINT Tonight on Independent Lens

Tonight at 10:00 PM on Independent Lens on PBS (check local listings), a special encore presentation of MARCH POINT: Meet Cody, Nick and Travis––three teenagers from the Swinomish Tribe. After hard times on the rez lead to rehab and drug court, they are offered an alternative: to make a documentary about the impact of two oil refineries on their community. A collaborative coming of age story, MARCH POINT follows the ambivalent and once-troubled teens as they come to understand themselves and the threat their people face.

Indian Country Today: “MARCH POINT questions for the first time the legality of the reservation boundary adjustment and documents the refineries’ environmental impacts.”
