Trailer: "Forget Winnetou! Loving in the Wrong Way

A documentary film produced and directed by Red Haircrow, on Native stereotypes in Germany, white supremacy and the racism they and other peoples of color face on a daily basis. This is a reality often very different from the experiences of occasional visitors and performers enthralled by the "Indian Craze", first inspired by Karl May's series of books, on a fictional Apache chief named Winnetou.
