"It's always because of the land." Netflix is about to debut this documentary film to watch worldwide next month. Free Leonard Peltier is a true story documentary about one man and America. It's also the story about one activist and the power of activism. Free Leonard Peltier premiered at the 2025 Sundance Film Festival last year, and after touring around to other fests, it's finally ready for release. Acclaimed directors Jesse Short Bull and David France revisit one of the most discredited convictions in modern America—the double life sentences handed down to Indian rights activist Leonard Peltier for the 1975 murder of two FBI agents on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation of South Dakota. The film chronicles occupations, arrests, demands, assassinations—and in the midst of it all, the story of Peltier, a one-time mechanic who joined the AIM movement to protect and advocate for his people and quickly found himself in a war. After nearly five decades in federal prison, Peltier's sentence was commuted to home confinement in January 2025. Alas has conviction was not overturned.
