The Arizona International Film Festival, the longest running film celebration in Arizona, will open its 30th Festival (April 20-30, 2022) with the world premiere of Canyon Del Muerto.
Canyon Del Muerto portrays the epic true story of North America’s first female archaeologist, Ann Axtell Morris. Ann worked side by side with the Navajo in the 1920’s in Canyon De Chelly, Arizona to uncover North America’s earliest civilization, the Anasazi Basketmakers.
The film stars BAFTA winner Abigail Lawrie from Amazon’s award winning series Tin Star, Tom Felton (of the Harry Potter franchise), Ewen Bremner (Trainspotting), Tatanka Means (The Son), Finn Jones (Game of Thrones), Jacob Fortune-Lloyd (Queens Gambit), Academy Award Nominee Abigail Breslin (Little Miss Sunshine) and Academy Honorary Award Winner Wes Studi.
