It's based on David Grann's non-fiction book about a series of brutal murders that took place in Oklahoma in the 1920s targeting Osage people for their headrights - a share of the mineral rights to their oil-rich land. The film tells the story of a traumatic chapter in Osage Nation history. Some showed off the fashions of Indigenous designers and others wore traditional dress.


It's not everyday that you see Indigenous people own the red carpet at the Cannes International Film Festival, but that was the scene at the premiere of Killers of the Flower Moon. On and off the red carpet, the festival had a strong Indigenous presence - a fashion show featuring Indigenous designers was a highlight. Jillian Dion, from left, JaNae Collins, Cara Jade Myers, Robert De Niro, Leonardo DiCaprio, Martin Scorsese, Lily Gladstone and Tantoo Cardinal arrive for the screening of Killers of the Flower Moon during the Cannes Film Festival in France, on May 20.
