About
(Jacob Bailey & Christopher Ward, 2025, United States, 96 min, in English and Ichishkíin Sínwit with English subtitles)
THESE SACRED HILLS follows the Rock Creek Band of the Yakama Nation as they fight to protect their sacred land from a proposed green energy project. After centuries of displacement, they are forced to share parts of their culture never seen before in a desperate effort to preserve what remains. Featuring insights from indigenous affairs reporter Toastie Oaster and historian Professor Andrew Fisher, the film weaves together traditional food gathering, community life, and modern activism. It deepens the conversation about the critical intersection of Indigenous rights and the climate crisis, challenging us to find energy solutions that respect and preserve the lands and cultures that have been stewarded for millennia.
Sponsored by: American Rivers, NW Film Forum, Washington Conservation Action, Yakama Nation with support from Seeding Justice

Accessibility
Ticketing, concessions, cinemas, restrooms, and our public edit lab are located on Northwest Film Forum's ground floor, which is wheelchair accessible. We have a limited number of assistive listening devices available for programs hosted in our larger theater, Cinema 1. These devices are maintained by the Technical Director, and can be requested at the ticketing and concessions counter.
The Forum does NOT have assistive devices for the visually impaired, and is not (yet) a scent-free venue. Our commitment to increasing access for our audiences is ongoing, and we welcome all public input on the subject!
If you have additional specific questions about accessibility at our venue, please contact our Patron Services Manager at rajah@nwfilmforum.org
