As a young child, Rebecca Hoffman (played by Academy Award® winner Mercedes Ruehl) was raised by a loving and caring family, knowing she was adopted.

Following her parents' deaths, Rebecca begins a search for her natural family. She is contacted by a Navajo woman looking for her own siblings, who were stolen from her mother at birth. As the two women talk, they suddenly realize they are sisters and that Becks has found her birth family! Excitedly, Rebecca decides to take her children to meet her family on the reservation.

They are welcomed with opened arms, and begins learning the language and traditions of their rich ancestry. Her husband (Jamey Sheridan), however, is branded an outsider and has difficulty becoming accepted as a part of the Navajo community. As the differences between the two cultures come to the surface, the family discovers a commitment to each other that runs deeper than the circumstances and a heritage that captivates their hearts.
