Native American Thriller ‘Wind River’ Plays Sept. 29 at FAB Fest

September 16, 2018 By Phil Raschke

Deep into the vast and unforgiving white territory of the Wind River Indian Reservation, seasoned game tracker, Jeremy Renner, discovers the frozen body of a young Arapaho girl. As this may be a federal crime, the F.B.I. dispatches an inexperienced but courageous agent, Elizabeth Olsen, to lead the investigation. 

Together they forge an uncommon alliance that enables them to uncover horrific events that precipitated the young woman’s death. Thisfast paced, action packed mystery-thriller was written and directed by Academy Award nominee Taylor Sheridan (“Sicario”, “Hell or High Water”) and features Graham Greene and a strong supporting cast of Native American actors.
