    I wouldn't call this film a documentary as such, and it certainly doesn't strike me as simple exploitation. The Seminoles shown here, wearing a variety of dress styles from traditional to modern, are participating in a Folk Festival, in the 50s. This is an interesting clip because it shows Seminoles being honored by someone--not performing--at the festival, and then right after that, an Oklahoman Creek in a flashy, movie-Indian kind of outfit performing in a much more showman way. I like the contrast.
