Working with Lily Gladstone before "Killers of the Flower Moon" released | American Masters | PBS

In "Lily Gladstone: Far Out There," filmmaker Brooke Pepion Swaney profiles independent film actress Lily Gladstone as she prepares for the release of "Killers of the Flower Moon." Drawing from her childhood on the Blackfeet Reservation in Montana and her peripatetic life as a professional actor, Gladstone learns to stand on her own two feet in order to make her voice heard.

Swaney sat down with American Masters to reflect on the experience and the unique privilege of working with Gladstone on this documentary before the anticipated flurry of media attention surrounding her role in Martin Scorsese’s “Killers Of The Flower Moon.”

What happens when an artist holds up a mirror to the world? "In The Making" is a documentary shorts series from American Masters and Firelight Media follows emerging cultural icons on their journeys to becoming masters of their artistic disciplines. Across seven episodes, meet creatives who are making work that explores and influences American culture today.
