520 _aPrior to Euro-American settlement in the 1820's, one of the major landscape features of North America was 240 million acres of tallgrass prairie. But between 1830 and 1900 the prairie was steadily transformed to farmland. This drastic change in the landscape brought about an enormous social change for Native Americans. In an equally short time their cultural imprint was reduced in essence to a handful of place names appearing on maps. This film displays extraordinary cinematography of prairie remnants, an original score and archival images, all delicately interwoven to create a powerful viewing experience about the natural and cultural history of America.
