Rakeem and Jacob's grandma just passed away and they get lost in aimlessness "rez life". They cross paths at a party with Zhonie who is a college graduate coming back to the Navajo Reservation to take care of her alcoholic uncle.
In a close-knit but struggling Native American reservation, two cousins, Rakeem and Jacob, grapple with the loss of their grandmother and the aimlessness that follows. Succumbing to the vices of "rez life," their paths intersect with Zhonie, a college-educated woman desperate to change her community, and Johnny, a local hip-hop artist with a family he's neglected. These four souls collide in a life-altering summer, revealing the complexities of escape, reform, and the heartbreaking challenge of breaking cycles of despair.—Steven H. Tallas
