Young Jesses drugs and petty crimes force his mother to take him out of the city and back to their ranch in the desert where his father has lived and worked alone after they separated years before. To end their struggle with poverty, she puts the mineral rights in the land up for sale. A spirit arises from the earth to capture Jesse and turn him around until he changes and joins with his father to protect of the land against exploitation by oil and mining interests. This fictional story was inspired by the struggle over many decades by the Hopi and Dineh peoples against exploitation of Black Mesa in Arizona for coal, oil, and uranium. Their problem is not unique, but typical of what is happening to the lands of many indigenous peoples around the world.

Review :

Spiritual & uplifting film showing man against adversity

To describe this as an enjoyable film is correct but beguiles the trauma and adversity and injustice that form central pillars of it's substance. It tells a convincing story that is well represented in human experience of someone challenging injustice and threat. Someone small, in fact an David and Goliath magnitude comparison came immediately to mind. It was easy to be taken into the story and forget that this was in fact a film and feel for the character as he dealt with the adversity of his situation. No spoilers here, I don't want to detract in anyway from the beauty, simplicity and yet intelligence and compassion that this film has been composed from. It is something to watch and reflect on. Well made, well written and well directed yes, but also a work that represents a classical story in a modern context - and no less impressive.
