Navajo Spirit Part 1: Acceptance

The peace and harmony of family life is shattered when a newcomer joins the Old Man and his grandchildren who live high in the Arizona Mountain Forest. Western and Navajo culture clash, resulting in racial issues not easily resolved.

An eagle soars constantly above the newcomer since his arrival at their home. Seen as his spirit guide, its presence and continued protection suggests that he has a tough journey ahead of him.

Niyol the old man watches and waits as events take place, treating each of the youngsters with the wisdom of his knowledge in an effort to help them through these difficult times.
