About Filmmaker Patty L Collins

As a Cherokee-Choctaw-Irish woman I am deeply moved by the beautiful and pitiful in each of us. As a filmmaker I am inspired, maybe even driven to make films that reveal the sacredness of everyday life.

In many ways Sinew captures the essence of what I hold most dear in life: that we are the continuation of our ancestors, and in spite of our historical and personal trauma, the fragile seeds of our dreams continue to take root, healing our families and restoring our relationship to all living things.

Patty L Collins' new film! Precious Being: Spiritual and Cultural Healing of the Modern American Indian will start filming in early 2008.

About River Otter Productions

Our production company was inspired by Patsy Claus. Patsy loved Sinew. As a recently retired elementary school teacher of 30 years, Patsy felt that a deeper understanding and knowledge of the historical and modern experiences of American Indian people was greatly needed. We will update everyone when we begin production on our next film from Indian Country in the winter of 2007-2008.

River Otter Productions is located in Sedona, Arizona. Patty L Collins and Patsy Claus may be reached at Collins-Claus at River Otter Productions.com.
