The Nez Perce War of 1877 forever changed the lives of the Nez Perce people. In SACRED JOURNEY OF THE NEZ PERCE, a one-hour documentary, we learn of their struggle for survival and their determination to maintain their culture. Tribal members from throughout the Northwest describe the history of their people. The program is narrated by Nez Perce CBS news anchor Hattie Kauffman. SACRED JOURNEY is a story about a physical trek over 1,600 difficult miles. It is also the story of a spiritual journey of healing, patience and pride that has led many Nez Perce back to their cultural roots.
