Geronimo's Children
For 300 years the Apache, the Indians of the Hollywood legend, outfought Mexican, Spanish and American armies. It was only 90 years ago that their leader Geronimo surrendered and the Apache wars were over.
For the tribe there followed years of imprisonment, a struggle against an outright attempt to destroy their culture. Even in the 1950s there was no proper housing and children were dying from the cold. It was then that the Apache took their future into their own hands. Their aims - economic independence and the revival of the Indian values - have met with enormous success.
In the first such film permitted on the reservation, Horizon asks how this legendary people, with their Stone Age culture, have made the transition.
