Description:
Narrated by Academy-Award winning actress Linda Hunt, 'Ishi: The Last Yahi' tells the tale of a lone Native American who wandered into a Northern California town twenty years after his tribe was thought to be extinct. This powerful documentary sheds some light on the often atrocious US government policy in regards to the American Indian. We learn that Ishi maintained his tribal identity while walking through an ever-changing and advancing century. Run time 60 minutes.
"Ishi: The Last Yahi" is a compelling documentary film available on DVD from Shanachie, a renowned label known for its dedication to preserving and distributing culturally significant works in music and film. This moving documentary tells the story of Ishi, believed to be the last surviving member of the Yahi tribe of California. Emerging from the wilderness in 1911, Ishi became an emblematic figure whose life offered invaluable insights into Native American history and culture during a time when indigenous peoples faced immense challenges.
The film was directed by Jed Riffe, an acclaimed filmmaker recognized for his impactful documentaries focusing on social justice and historical subjects. Riffe's previous works include "Waiting to Inhale" and "California?s ?Lost? Tribes," both celebrated for their depth and sensitivity. Co-producer Pamela Roberts has also contributed significantly to educational media with award-winning projects that explore diverse cultural narratives.
Key participants featured in this documentary include anthropologist Theodora Kroeber?author of "Ishi in Two Worlds," which inspired much of the narrative?and Alfred L. Kroeber, one of America?s most influential anthropologists who worked closely with Ishi at UC Berkeley. Their pioneering research helped preserve vital aspects of Yahi language and traditions.
Shanachie Entertainment stands out as a producer committed to high-quality releases that illuminate important stories across genres; their catalog includes landmark documentaries alongside classic world music recordings.
