What would be the Native American equivalent to the film "Apocalypto?"?

“Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee” and “Cheyenne Autumn” are two that leap to mind. And there are others on this IMDb list.

Dances With Wolves would be my first response.
Bury My Heart At Wounded Knee was a great book, though I haven’t seen the movie.
Little Big Man is also an amusing take on the American Indian redefined.

Great Bear McMountain and Wide River O’Daffodill’s Wild Adventure.

A thrilling tale about a Scotsman and Irisman who become part of an ancient native American tribe.

If you can find it, I recommend Black Robe(film).

There’s a little known but wonderful film called “The Education of Little Tree”. .

The first part of the film shows his grandfather (played by James Cromwell from “Babe”) taking him out in the woods and teaching him about life and nature.

That’s contrasted with the harshness of the government established boarding school where they are forced to send him.

It shows how they systematically try to strip them of their Indian heritage, language and culture so they could fit in better.

But, you’ll love the ending. It’s a beautiful film.

If you want late 20th century modern, you might try Smoke Signals It’s about two Spokane Indian teenagers who go on a road trip to pick up the ashes of his estranged father. You can watch it on Netflix streaming.

I hope you’re not implying that Apocalypto was accurate to the Maya in any way…

@Buttonstc Indeed I have read that! :) thanks all
