Description

Search for the Sacred Seeds is the exciting and heart-warming story of a young Indian woman named Gloria who discards the cultural norms and traditions of her tribe and goes off to experience the excitement and bright lights of the white man's world.
After four years and a failed romance she feels a longing for the safety and peace of the reservation. But her people are reluctant to welcome her back.
When she takes up with a foreign man that she meets on the res, her people become downright hostile toward the both of them.
A crisis arises on the res when it is discovered that there is a plot to steal the sacred seeds that the tribe has protected for centuries. Gloria and her friend risk their lives in an effort to save the seeds from the thieves.
Their heroic deed changes everyone on the res including themselves.
