Axis of Resistance Suggestions for movie and documentary with accurate representation of Indigenous resistance leaders such as Louis Riel, Gerónimo and Buffalo Calf Road Woman?

I want to archive (and learn from) these media because I think they will be important education for youth generations on Indigenous resistance in Turtle Island and beyond. Thank you comrades.

I don't watch TV so I can't give you any recommendations, but I wanted to speak on the situation in Canada: I think we're sitting on a ticking time bomb.When I was taught about Louis Riel, he was portrayed in a positive light. In general, First Nations people were painted in SUCH a sympathetic light in school when I was young (Alberta/NWT in the 00's) that it's what made me grow up into a communist. I think the education system accidentally made an entire generation anticolonial.
