Struggling to survive amid urban squalor in downtown Los Angeles, transplanted Mojave Indian Triam Lee sees no other option but crime to support his family. But when he unintentionally commits murder, Triam must face the repercussions of his actions, including pursuit by racist cops, as well as his own sense of guilt. Shot in 1977, Bruce Schwartz's stark yet moving film was one of the first to star a Native American in a lead role.
