1961 | B/N | 1h 12 min

The film depicts 4 hours in the lives of two young Native Americans who have left their reservations to live in Los Angeles: Yvonne, a young Apache, and her husband Homer, a Hualapi, are expecting a child. They share a two-room apartment with the Mexican Tommy and four of their Native American friends. The young men set off at nightfall to go drinking, play cards, pick up girls, fight and dance. Yvonne goes to the movies on her own, strolls through a shopping district and then spends the night at a friend´s house. These two scenarios sum up the confused lives of young Native Americans caught between tradition and modern life.
