SYNOPSIS

Remaining Native is a coming-of-age documentary told from the perspective of Kutoven (Ku) Stevens, a 17-year-old Native American runner, struggling to navigate his dream of becoming a collegiate athlete as the memory of his great-grandfather’s escape from an Indian boarding school begins to connect past, present, and future.

WORLD PREMIERE

SXSW 2025

"The personal perspective of Ku Stevens' journey towards collegiate running in Remaining Native is inspiring and universally relatable, yet the film also stitches in important depictions of Indigenous cultural resilience and spirituality."
