Customer Reviews

How do we forgive our fathers, maybe in a dream?

Two of the filming locations are in Coeur d'Alene Indian Reservation, Plummer, Idaho, USA, and Sun Lakes State Park - State Highway 17, Coulee City, Washington, USA. Victor Joseph’s father dies in Phoenix. Victor, played by Adam Beach (Adam has played just about every tribe of Indian known), does not have the money to go there to pick up his father’s ashes. His quasi-friend “Thomas Builds-the-Fire”, played by Evan Adams, will loan them money if Victor takes him along. They travel together on a journey of enlightenment and self-discovery. Based on the book “The Lone Ranger and Tonto Fistfight in Heaven” by Sherman Alexi. Thomas Builds-the-Fire’s End Monologue is adapted from the poem “Forgive Our Fathers” by dick Lourie.
