A grandfather who believes in tradition. A teenager who believes in today.
An Indian elder storyteller asks his grandson Shane, who is in trouble owing money to some bad guys, to take his old pony and him to Albuquerque to the great powwow. While traveling, Grandpa tells Shane stories that have been passed down from one generation to the next.

they are both in Pow Wow Highway too. Highly reccommend it. Great movie filmed on N.Cheyenne rez and Pine Ridge rez. Gary Farmer is priceless in this movie.

No. Ollllld rez movie ('85 I think) with A Martinez. Gary Farmer has a 'pony' named Protecter. Wes Studi is about 25 and plays a sleez. It's the best of the rez films, IMHO. Hard to find and usually expensive, but well worth it all. I saved up for a copy!
