In the Little Singer film , Jeneda Benally shares a traditional Diné understanding of illness.
An artist, musician, and longtime advocate for Indigenous rights and environmental protection, Jeneda speaks to a worldview where illness is reframed from disease to disharmony.
Something out of balance.
In this way of seeing, the focus goes beyond symptoms.
It is on relationship.
