1992 film directed by Michael Apted starring Val Kilmer, Sam Shepard, and Graham Greene.
Based on a true incident, the story of an FBI agent (Kilmer) sent to a Sioux reservation to solve a murder.
Reluctant to acknowledge his own Sioux heritage, Kilmer is forced to confront it during this probe into an activist's death. Dramatic, suspenseful, with touches of mysticism. Graham Greene (Dances With Wolves, Northern Exposure) shines as a tribal cop and Shepard is fine as always. But the real scene stealer is Ted Thin Elk as a shaman whose spirituality affects Kilmer's character in profound ways. Look for former presidentail candidate Fred Thompson as an FBI official.
