The Exiles (1961)
From Kent Mackenzie’s night-in-the-life film about a group of young American Indians living in the Bunker Hill neighborhood of Los Angeles in the 1960s as they struggle (like most people in their early 20s) to figure out where they fit into society, there is the expected conflict between the “old customs” and “new world,” but the real gravitas of the film comes from the isolation of the women of this community, strikingly captured.
