"87% of Native Americans don’t live on reservations." ❤️‍🩹✨

The long-awaited trailer for CourageTheFilm, from world champion hoop dancer Eric Michael Hernandez (ericmicha3l), has finally dropped—and it already has us in tears. 🥹🎥

In the powerful short film Courage, a Native American teen struggling with self-confidence finds his world transformed when his uncle introduces him to the art of Hoop Dance.

Based on true events, #Courage is a heartfelt story about breaking stereotypes, inspiring the next generation, and finding strength in who you are. This is more than just a short film for our people—it’s a reminder that identity is power.

The film also brings star power, featuring Oscar-nominated Cara.Jade.Myers as Jean, PJ Vegas (therealpjvegas) as Tony, Pyet Despain (chefpyet) as Mrs. Johnson, and more. Plus, the producing team has worked on iconic films like #RezBall and #LaLaLand. 🍿⭐

Thoughts on the trailer?! Do you relate to the film’s synopsis? Are you excited to watch CourageTheFilm when it releases? 💭⤵️
