Navajo Police: Class 57 S1

Navajo Police: Class 57 follows the lives of a group of young Navajo Police cadets as they fight to protect and serve people on the reservation. They must contend with rising crime and centuries of neglect to hold their community together.

Filmed over the course of a year, the Emmy-nominated HBO documentary miniseries is set against the sweeping backdrop of the Navajo Nation. The largest Indian reservation in the United States, it has a landmass the size of West Virginia, a population of over 190 000 people, and just 180 police officers.

With pressure on the department to increase numbers, the Navajo Police Department has become the only tribal law enforcement agency in the country with its own Police Academy. All of the recruits are Navajo and drawn from the community, but with an attrition rate of over 50%, the training officers have their work cut out for them.
