Though the Netflix sports drama Rez Ball, premiering at the Toronto International Film Festival, is technically “inspired by” articles and a book written by journalist Michael Powell, co-writer Sterlin Harjo explains he didn’t read all that material. “I didn’t need to read the book,” he says. Instead, director and co-writer Sydney Freeland was his “source material.” Harjo and Freeland are both indigenous; Powell is not.
