  • "Follows the 1996 election of tribal chairman at Minnesota's White Earth Indian Reservation. Focuses on charges of election fraud and corrupt practices against the five-term incumbent, Darrell 'Chip' Wadena."
  • "Follows the campaigning for tribal chairman at the White Earth Ojibwa Reservation in Minnesota. The major issues are the earnings of the reservation casino, which have not been used to help the residents, and the corrupt practices used by the incumbent, Darrrell "Chip" Wadena. to keep getting re- elected. Interviews two of his opponents, Lowell Bellinger, a Korean War vet and garage owner, and Eugene "Bugger" McArthur, a political activist who is running for the third time against Wadena. At the halfway point, a federal prosecutor charges Wadena with corruption, and the anti-Wadena forces gather hope. A fourth candidate, Rev. Doyle Turner, an Episcopalian minister, who is seen as being in the Wadena camp, seems to take the lead. Rumor and strategy occupy everyone, until voting day, and the day after, when the absentee ballots are counted."
