The Precipice

A Native American bayou community struggles to preserve an eroding shoreline that threatens to wash away their culture; the result of decades of systemic injustices by the state of Louisiana and the federal government that Hurricane Ida’s devastation has only exacerbated. Now, the fate of the Point-Au-Chien Indian Tribe is left in the balance.
