This movie started out by moving from the modern life in the city to the Indian reservation of the main character. I don't know how much of what was portrayed is true and what is fiction. I assume the story was fiction. On one hand it is a study of guilt and what it can lead to. On the other hand it is a study of possible religious beliefs of this tribe of Indians and the upbringing of the main character. The tribe's Medicine man didn't have to do much acting as he was a natural for the part. He looked like Little Jimmy Dickens when I first saw him but of course he wasn't. The acting was OK but the story line and mysticism kept me involved with the story till the end. One thing I never did figure out was the roll of the wolf. This movie is a little old but if you get a chance to see it, take it. It will be worth your while.

I really liked this movie. There was a couple of things going on that kept you guessing. I saw one poster stating they didn't like the ending but I thought the ending was just right. Don't pass this one by.

I really enjoyed this movie, loved the traditional Native American aspects. It was a spiritual, psychological thriller, supernatural and drama cacophony all rolled together. Very entertaining and holds you all the way through to the twist at the end. Beautiful cinematography and the acting was above par for an indie film. Loved it!

I was pleasantly surprised at how good this movie was.I picked it up at Blockbuster. It was well written, very well acted and directed. The cinematography was nice. All around it was very well crafted. I am always inspired to see good movies made on minimal budgets, without name actors with a shoestring crew that deliver something that is on par and in some cases surpassing what a lot of bigger budget projects don't. It was nice to see this genre in a different context. It was easy to see from the credits that this film was made by a few people that were wearing a lot of hats and they did it very well.This was good story telling.Good movie making. Well done! I would be interested to know what the budget was on this project. If anyone involved knows and wants to share PM me.

This was one of those movies that showed up on my Because You Watched list on Netflix. Of course, the movie I had watched, Witch Hunt, was not remotely similar to this film, although it was also good in its own right. What made me give this movie I had not heard of before was when I saw it was from filmmaker Chris Eyre. I am a fan of his film Smoke Signals. The story was engaging and the solution to the mystery was a kicker. Plus the current hardships faced by real life on the reservations is eye opening. Great flick. Don't pass this mystery by.
