Stories I Didn't Know dives into the personal journey of Rita Davern, a woman grappling with her family's past and the historical tensions surrounding land ownership. It’s quite a reflective piece, almost meditative, where you can feel the weight of the Dakota history. The pacing is slow, allowing you to really sit with the themes of legacy and displacement. It’s not flashy, but the rawness of the interviews and the moments of solitude in nature give it a unique atmosphere. Rita's earnest exploration feels very intimate, almost like you’re piecing together a family puzzle alongside her. Worth noting is how it doesn’t shy away from the complexities of heritage, which can spark some serious thoughts long after the credits roll.
