    • Synopsis
    • The Yellow Eagle family lives in an Indian Reservation. Soon after news reaches them that the youngest son has died during military service in Afghanistan, his brother is involved in a fight with the white community and falls in a coma. Trapped in a spiral of alcohol and violence, the eldest has to stand up as a man again. LAND is a modern western about Indians, whites, distance, longing and cattle farms set in the American plains.
