PORT ANGELES — One more screening of the Jamestown S’Klallam tribe’s new short film, “Legacy of Our Ancestors: Treaty Resources of the Jamestown S’Klallam Tribe,” will be held at the Elwha Klallam Heritage Center, 401 E. First St., at 7 p.m. Wednesday.
Admission is free. Donations will be accepted to defray costs.
Through interviews with tribal citizens who use modern methods to fish, hunt and gather, and those who remember the old ways, “Legacy of Our Ancestors” reconnects viewers to the cycles of nature that allowed indigenous people to thrive through the millennia, according to a news release.
The film, which recently screened in Sequim, Port Hadlock, Port Townsend and Port Angeles, runs 35 minutes.
After Wednesday’s showing, Jamestown S’Klallam tribal elder Marlin Holden and videographer Al Bergstein will hold a question-and-answer session.
