Paha Sapa
Synopsis
Eleven-year-old Sarah Levy was a city girl, a Brooklyn girl. The modern wonders of the 1920's were all around her there, and she could not imagine a better place to live. But her life was changed by a telegram that took her family across the country to a starkly different land and lifestyle in South Dakota. Suddenly Sarah finds herself coming of age in a landscape that could not be more foreign to her. On the grandparent's farm, on the land they loved, Sarah finds a friend, a Sioux Indian girl named Wicincala. Through the mystical adventures they share, Sarah learns lessons in life; love, loyalty and forgiveness that are larger than time itself.
