Andrew Troy’s ‘I Am A Man’ Among First Recipients Of Cherokee Nation Film Office’s Incentive
EXCLUSIVE: Andrew Troy’s film I Am a Man – The True Story of Chief Standing Bear has been named as one of the first that will benefit from the Cherokee Nation Film Office’s tax incentive program, in support of filmmakers seeking filming locations and crew in Oklahoma. The CNFO’s mission with its $1M incentive, announced earlier this year, is to entice more film and TV projects to shoot within the boundaries of the Cherokee Nation—following a recent influx of projects like Killers of the Flower Moon and Reservation Dogs—while also supporting Native stories and increasing the presence of Native Americans in every level of the film and television industry.
