- Themes
- Eucharist
- "A great feast scene with eucharistic
overtones."
- Fathers/Father Figures
- A great Father's Day film -- Smoke Signals
-- based on writings of Sherman Alexi -- a young man's search for his
father who died after abandoning his family. The last lines are a poem
about forgiving our fathers and asked what we would do if we forgave our
fathers. ANN
- Forgiveness
- "Smoke Signals, a movie, video made on a reservation in
Pacific NW is about
forgiving our fathers."
- Journey/Quest, Father Figures,
Reconciliation
- This might fit in several categories -- quest is
the first idea that comes to me -- Smoke Signals -- the best movie I
have seen for a long time. It is set on the Coeur d'Alene
reservation -- 2 young men go a trip of self discovery and
reconnection with parents. Great coming to terms with relationships
with fathers. (submitted by Ann Fontaine, Lander WY)
