A cry for help placed like a message in a bottle is this carefully sketched, animated and observed documentary restored by Arsenal, which was made when 74-jährige Hopi James Danaqyumptewa invited two Swiss artists, Anka Schmid und Agnes Barmettler, to Arizona to record the rituals of the Hopi and their struggle against the US government and fight against forgetting.
