Big Crow is a 2022 American documentary film directed by Kris Kaczor. The film examines the life and impact of SuAnne Big Crow, a young Lakota basketball player who used her talents to fight racism, violence, drugs and alcohol on Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota.[1] [2] [3] In 1989 Suanne made history, bringing the first-ever class A girls state basketball championship to a native high school. Her tragic death in a car accident in 1992 served to cement her legacy as an activist and gave power to a voice that remains effective today, thirty years after her death.[4] [5]
