Overview

Sterlin Harjo’s second feature film, Barking Water (2009), like Four Sheets to the Wind, is very situated and centered in Oklahoma. The earlier film is set and filmed in Holdenville and Tulsa, Oklahoma, and as one reviewer points out “almost the entire cast and many of the crew members are American Indians” (John Anderson). Barking Water too is set and filmed entirely on location in Oklahoma, and it is in every way local. From the opening shot of an Oklahoma river onward, the film is replete with shots of rural Oklahoma. The actors too are from the land. Richard Ray
