DESCRIPTION:"From the Badlands to Alcatraz" chronicles the heroic journey of Lakota 
 Sioux from the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota as they arrive in San 
 Francisco and prepare for the extreme challenge of swimming from Alcatraz 
 to the San Francisco shore, moving beyond limitations and reclaiming health 
 and spiritual power for themselves and members of their tribe.\n\nThe film 
 will screen at the 10 a.m. program, Sunday, February 7 at the San Francisco 
 Ocean Film Festival Theater 39, The Embarcadero and Beach Street, San 
 Francisco. For ticket information visit: www.oceanfilmfest.org.\n\n"From 
 the Badlands to Alcatraz" documents not only the Alcatraz swim, but also 
 the struggle for people living on the Pine Ridge Reservation to change 
 their diet and overall health in the face of crushing poverty. 
 Producer/Director Dr. Nancy Iverson, a San Francisco pediatrician, cared 
 for Pine Ridge families in the 1990s. Her film developed from PATHSTAR 
 (www.pathstar.org), a nonprofit she co-founded to help reservation people 
 live healthier lives. Every year, Iverson brings Pine Ridge people to San 
 Francisco to participate in a week-long program culminating with the 
 Alcatraz swim.\n\n
