What I liked about rafting is, being on the river. Floating through the rapids, hearing that water. Getting out there. A lot of people like me, don’t get out there.” Devin Reuben For Nez Perce teen Devin Reuben, learning the lines on the Snake and Salmon Rivers is about much more than a job—it’s an act of cultural reclamation. hitoláayca (Going Upriver) follows Devin as he trains to become the first certified Nimiipuu whitewater guide of his generation, forging a pathway back to his ancestral waters so others can follow. As Devin puts it: “It's one big step for us: not just me, all of us. We're slowly bringing our culture back.” 🎥 Full film drops on @NRSWEB 6/5.
