A documentary film is being made about an Alaska Native man who was fatally shot in Fairbanks by law enforcement officers on Christmas Eve 2017. The family of Cody Eyre is developing the documentary to share who he was, and what happened to him but also to affect change in how calls for mental health issues are responded to.
