Bismarck-based filmmaker Matt Fern has been making a documentary about the controversy around the University of North Dakota's Fighting Sioux nickname for seven years now.
This spring, he's finally ready to put it in front of wide audiences. The film, now called Fighting Over Sioux, will get a theatrical release in North Dakota this spring, to be followed by availability in other media such as online streaming.
Fern talks about his journey in making this film and why the story is still relevant today.
This episode of Plain Talk is brought to you by Americans for Prosperity of North Dakota.
