"Arkhaios is a free festival, juried competition, presenting films from around the world, half of them for the first time in the USA," states the website.

A Forgotten Tale of American Conquest and Native Survival
Lost Nation: The Ioway 1 (1700-1836) & Lost Nation: The Ioway 2 (1837-1878) screened previously at the Arkhaios Cultural Heritage & Archaeology Film Festival in South Carolina in competition.
Lost Nation: Ioway 3 (1879-1970s)
As two separate Nations, the Ioway entered the 20th century amid American Indian policies aimed at Native American assimilation. From the Ghost Dance to the American Indian Movement, the Ioway experienced cultural disintegration and rebirth. Successful land claims in the 1970s propelled both tribes toward greater self-determination and a revival of time-honored Native traditions.
