Artfully shot" -The Times Picayune "Extraordinary" -Anthropology Today BURY THE HATCHET is a portrait of three Mardi Gras Indian "Big Chiefs"of New Orleans, descendants of runaway slaves taken in by the Native Americans of the Louisiana bayous. Once plagued by intertribal violence, today these African-American tribes take to the backstreets of New Orleans on Mardi Gras, dressed in elaborate Native-American influenced costumes that they sew over the course of the year. When tribes meet instead of attacking each other with hatchets and knives, they battle over which Chief has the prettiest suit. http://www.7thart.com/films/Bury-the-Hatchet The film follows the Mardi Gras Indians over the course of five years, both pre and post Hurricane Katrina, and is an exploration of their art and philosophies, as well as their struggles within their communities: harassment by the police, violence amongst themselves, gentrification of their neighborhoods, disinterested youth, old age and natural disaster.
