This documentary features interviews with living "code talkers" including Navajo Chairman Peter MacDonald, artist and scholar Carl Gorman, and Taos artist R.C. Gorman. Using rare 1940's archival footage and photographs of Navajo life as well as scenes from the warfront, the film poignantly portrays the vital role that Navajo Marines played in the South Pacific during World War II.
