Josh and Rebecca Tickell present a well-crafted narrative film about a journalist who is faced with a variety of internal and external conflicts regarding a new story he is working on. On Sacred Ground is a movie based on the truthful events behind the Dakota Access Pipeline. William Mapother as Daniel the main lead does a remarkable job allowing for the audience to really connect with the characters on such an insightful film. Daniel is a freelance journalist who struggles to reveal what's going on at the pipeline once he sees what's happening. With a deteriorating homelife and lingering PTSD Daniel has to choose what path he wants to take when covering this story. The movie is filled with very powerful and realistic situations including the importance of Indian reservations, PTSD, indigenous women rights and so much more. This film captures you by providing authentic disputes throughout its entirety and a raw captivating ending. I would definitely give it a watch and recommend it to others.
