Summary:
"Filmed at the beautiful RFD-TV The Theatre in Branson, MO, this performance captures the true essence of the Brule' mission and encompasses Brule's 17 -year journey between two worlds. The concert features 14 songs from the Brule' catalog of award-winning contemporary Native American music including the never before released "Dakota Rainstorm", a Brule' autobiography in vocal song format. Brule's trademark fusion of traditional Native American dance and contemporary native American music has been recognized worldwide as the benchmark in contemporary Native American theatrical performances."--IMDB.COM.
