The Lost Spirits 70min
The Lost Spirits is a documentary following the lives of a
Native American family living in Queens, New York. In
recent years, many conflicts have plagued their tribe and
stirred up controversy within the town. It began with the
removal of their family cemetery to build a road in the
1930’s. The artifacts and burial items mysteriously went
missing. The acres of land they used to own was
snatched by the government for back taxes, and the
remaining land is landlocked by the surrounding owners.
The Barron family, members of the Matinecock and
Montaukett tribes, could never seem to get their voices
heard. This film is to show people who they are, what
happened in their lives, and the future of American
Indians in Little Neck, New York.
Cast; Eric Maryea,
Co-Directors; Charles Barron
Executive Producer; Eric Maryea
