The film — which premiered at the Sundance Festival last year but is now hitting a limited number of theatres this month and will stream on Apple TV+ from June 28 — is a work of fiction but feels like a documentary. She earned critical acclaim for her turn as an Osage woman locked in a duplicitous marriage to a murderous white husband in last year's true crime epic"Killers of the Flower Moon" from Martin Scorsese.In"Fancy Dance," Gladstone plays Jax, a single and poor woman on the Seneca-Cayuga reservation in Oklahoma whose sister disappears, leaving her to care for her niece Roki.
On the small screen, a handful of television shows have addressed the issue, including"Alaska Daily," starring Hilary Swank, and the most recent season of HBO's anthology series"True Detective" starring Jodie Foster and Kali Reis.
