Smoke Signals (1998)

Set in Arizona, <i>Smoke Signals</i> is the story of two Indian boys on a journey. Victor (Adam Beach) is the stoic, handsome son of an alcoholic father who has abandoned his family. Thomas (Evan Adams) is a gregarious, goofy young man who lost both his parents in a fire at a very young age. through storytelling, Thomas makes every effort to connect with the people around him; Victor, in contrast, uses his quiet countenance to gain strength and confidence.

When Victor's estranged father dies, the two men embark on an adventure to Phoenix to collect the ashes. Along the way, <i>Smoke Signals</i> illustrates the ties that bind these two very different young men and embraces the lessons they learn from one another. More »
