Rural United States and modern urban Mexico meet in this tale of restlessness, secrets, and a very promising southward journey to reunite a family ruptured by a brutal tragedy.
A young, self-destructive Montana Blackfoot Indian, his mind groggy with alcohol and tormented by childhood memories, discovers that his wife has left him, taking with her his prize rifle. He sets out to find her, but what he’s really searching for is his own uncertain identity and a glimpse of salvation.
