Mr. Streit wrote the screenplay, contributed 3 songs to the sound track and portrayed Lt. Juan Oliver in this brand new, independent feature film from Céladon Films, LLC.  Céladon, a metis hunter, urges his lover, Marianne, a Native slave, to flee Ste. Genevieve.  Her refusal and his decision to take another slave in her place sets dramatic events in motion: manhunts, mysterious deaths, arrests, interrogations.  Céladon cannot be found, but neither can he forget Marianne.  Will he return?  Will he free her?  Based on a true story from 1773 and shot in the historic homes of Ste. Genevieve, MO, UTSS tells a tale of heroism and tragic love from the era of Native slavery and colonial rule in the central Mississippi Valley.  Click the link to learn more about the making of the film and see the trailer.
