This program of three documentaries explores the work of artists Rabbett Before Horses Strickland, Delina White, and Jonathan Thunder.

Rabbett Before Horses is a portrait of painter, musician, and theoretical mathematician Strickland (Red Cliff Band of Ojibwe) and the experiences that have shaped his work. 

Common Ground follows fashion designer Delina White (Leech Lake Band of Ojibwe) as she prepares for a Two-Spirit runway show at the Walker Art Center.

Good Mythology examines the work of Jonathan Thunder (Red Lake Nation), whose surrealist paintings and animations draw from both pop culture and Anishinaabe mythology.
