Storyboard Text
- What do you mean I can't stay here in the village anymore?
- I am sorry my child, but we must send you to the white man's school.
- I love you, father! I will return to my people!
- I will come for you, my child! They cannot keep you!
- You must learn to be white, because the only good Indian is a dead one!
- Why are they taking my clothes, and why did they cut my hair? I want to go home.
- You are no longer to act or dress like a savage! You are to be an apple now!
- I am so sad to be in this place. I have to get out of her. Do my mother and father even miss me?
- Well the idea is to bounce a ball down the court and shoot it into a hoop and not let the other players have it.
- No
- Huh?!
- What is basketball?
- I have!
- Have you girls ever heard of the game of basketball?
- No
- Not me!
- I love this game!
- Maybe this white man's school isn't so bad after all.
- Nice Shot!
- I wonder what everyone back at camp is doing?
- I bet they would be so proud of us and our basketball team.
- We did it, we have a purpose again!
- Girls State Champion Basketball Team
- Attention Children: The boarding school will be closing and you will be returned to your home land and families!
