Synopsis

The discovery of a massive shale oil and gas deposit has turned North Dakota upside down.

The Fort Berthold Reservation, home to the Mandan, Hidatsa, and Arikara Nation, receives nearly $300 million in annual tax revenue from this industry. However, the redistribution of these revenues within the community is the subject of fierce controversy.
