Her father, permanently disabled from a car crash, can't help her. Her Auntie Squeaker seems to know something, but isn't eager to give it all up at once. Debby's anxious to help, but her controlling husband keeps getting in the way.

Rumble [videorecording] : the Indians who rocked the world / by Bainbridge, Catherine,film director,film producer.; Maiorana, Alfonso,film director,director of photography.; Kino Lorber, Inc,film distributor.; Rezolution Pictures Inc,production company.;
Cinematography, Alfonso Maiorana ; music, Ben Charest ; editing, Benjamin Duffield, Jeremiah Hayes.This revelatory documentary brings to light the profound and overlooked influence of Indigenous people on popular music in North America. Focusing on music icons like Link Wray, Jimi Hendrix, Buffy Sainte-Marie, Taboo (The Black Eyed Peas), Charley Patton, Mildred Bailey, Jesse Ed Davis, Robbie Robertson, and Randy Castillo, RUMBLE: The Indians Who Rocked the World shows how these pioneering Native American musicians helped shape the soundtracks of our lives. The idea for RUMBLE came about when guitarist Stevie Salas, an Apache Indian and one of the film's Executive Producers, realized that no one outside of the music business knew about the profound contribution of these Native musicians. Renewed attention to this missing chapter in the history of American music led to the publishing of Brian Wright-McLeod's The Encyclopedia of Native Music, an exhibit at the Smithsonian National Museum of the American Indian, and eventually this documentary.E.DVD ; widescreen presentation ; Dolby Digital 5.1.
