About the event
A poetic story of growth, death and the choices that define us, The Business of Fancydancing reunites Spokane Reservation best friends Aristotle Joseph (Gene Tagaban) and Seymour Polatkin (Evan Adams, Smoke Signals) sixteen years after their high school graduation. Beginning with a brief flashback to the young men’s enthusiastic look to the unlimited future, the film mirrors both Aristotle and Seymour as they leave the ‘rez’ for college in Seattle. Though these co-valedictorians left the rez for the white world in an identical state of excitement, their success in Seattle would ultimately differ dramatically and eventually set them against one another.
