Abandoned at a Wyoming orphanage as a child, Anderson found his way back to New Mexico. The South Valley of Albuquerque, an area with a reputation for violent crime, has been the backdrop for most of Anderson’s art. “Love in the Valley” explores not only Anderson’s love for Anne but also his deep love for the South Valley where she was born and where the two raise their two daughters today. This is a story about abandonment, belonging, and transcending stereotypes through the power of love.” -Source: Sante Fe Film Festival IN?DIG?E?NOUS EC?O?NOM?ICS by Chris Eyre (Director of Dark Winds, Smoke Signals) & Tantoo Cardinal (Killers of the Flower Moon & Dances with Wolves) & Lonnie Anderson is a short animated film that challenges the myth that prior to the arrival of Columbus, that Indigenous people did not have economies.  “the science of production, distribution and consumption according to millennial old principles of balance and harmony” - Rebecca Adamson.
