Deep Dive

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes

Trivia

Director Norry Niven spent years developing this after a personal loss, filming across actual Comanche and Kiowa lands with community blessing.

Insight

The film's 3.1 rating largely reflects distribution failures—it's barely seen outside festival circuits, not actual quality. Graham Greene reportedly took a massive pay cut because the script moved him that deeply.
