Film & Digital Arts alumni nominated for a Sports Emmy

Film & Digital Arts alumnus Fritz Bitsoie—a father, husband, Diné/Navajo filmmaker, and cultural storyteller—is now an Emmy-nominated director. His documentary Through The Storm captures the 2023 Red Lake Nation (Ojibwe) high school football season, chronicling a team's fight to revive its legacy amid a decades-long losing streak. More than a sports story, the film explores personal struggles, resilience, and how football becomes a symbol of hope and unity for the Red Lake community.
