Film Description:
"A lot of people on the rez rely on the cigarette industry as a means to get by and pay the bills. One of the jobs created is working in the actual cigarette store, waiting ... for people to come and buy the death sticks. Cigarette stores range from huge fancy convenience stores with luxuries indoor plumbing, to people selling straight from their trunks. This is a little taste of one woman's day at work in one of many cigarette stores that exist on her reserve."
