1837. Trekking for six days and six nights in a blistering cold Minnesota winter, legendary Boundary Waters voyageur George Bonga is tasked with tracking down a fugitive Ojibwe warrior accused of murdering a white man. A multilingual man of mixed blood, Bonga lived on the boundaries of Black, White, and Ojibwe. Is Bonga really tracking down a murderer, or is he chasing his own demons?

George Bonga: Black Voyageur Reviews
| Star Tribune - Recommended
"...Director Marion McClinton allows Brown's dialogue to unfold without a lot of fuss. Bonga and Che-Ga-Wa-Skung both lament the advent of loggers who will damage a natural world of balance. They agree on the vagaries of laws that depend on ethnicity. Bonga is more willing to accept that state of affairs; Che-Ga-Wa-Skung questions those assumptions."
