I found this documentary (The Bison Haze) linked to the Buffalo Field Campaign blog.

Thanks Ralph, Just watched all three parts, Not Real impressed, No depth, and a lot of footage that could have been left out.
I also watched all three parts. The people who filmed this said it an “art film” , a different kind of art genre. I have seen many art films/videos, live video installations, all over the world, and some really far-out work but in my professional opinion it fell short. They claimed to show all sides of the controversy and i do not agree that they did. I was very disappointed. There was an interesting discussion of the “film” on the New West web-site.
jjordan’s comment reflects that of the posts at New West.
I read the discussion then watched each part first without sound and then with sound. In my opinion, the film is not effective in conveying what is happening to the bison.
I posted after i read the comments, but decided not to post again after watching, as I don’t have anything positive to say about it and my impression of the comments written by a couple of people involved with the film, is that they don’t seem to want to have a “real” discussion about the “film”.
There’s a fourth film on that site titled “Bison Bison.” It’s about the latest buffalo hunt at Yellowstone, and both hunters and Buffalo Field Campaign volunteers are interviewed.
Sorry, that film I mention above is footage from last year’s hunt.
Time arrives for captured bison to return to park
