In Montana, indigenous women and girls make up only 3 - 4% of the population but they account for approximately 30% of those deemed missing by the Montana Department of Justice.
In the midst of the widespread crisis of missing and murdered indigenous women (MMIW), three families who have suffered devastating loss navigate a society and legal system that have a long history of indifference toward the struggles of indigenous families. Alongside these stories, indigenous scholars Sarah Deer and Annita Lucchesi guide us through the broader context of the crisis.
