A New Native American Classic
selected for the Sundance Film Festival and for Venice Days

“…cosmic perspective…Frankie’s deep, rumbling voice, even when weakened, lends his remarks a weighty finality…quiet humanity of the performances infuses the movie with a truthfulness.”
- New York Times

starring Richard Ray Whitman and Casey Camp-Horinek

“[Sterlin] Harjo, with his absorbing shooting rhythms, keen eye for landscape and drama, and two remarkable stars, Richard Ray Whitman and Casey Camp-Horinek, reinvigorates the notion of a road movie, investing the genre with emotion both plangent and deep.”
- Film Society of Lincoln Center and the Museum of Modern Art

Official Selection: Sundance Film Festival, New Directors/New Films

A lyrical road journey through the flat plains of Oklahoma, Sterlin Harjo’s second feature follows an older, estranged Native American couple as they visit the stations of their fractured relationship. A frank, unsentimental love story, the film is also a love letter to the people and places of the director’s home state.
