Jess
Beck, a single mom, lives in Six Nations, Canada. After her mother’s death, she abandons her dream of becoming a Mohawk language teach- er, and an unhealthy lifestyle leads to a diagnosis of Type 2 Diabetes. The ghost of Tom Longboat, a sports legend of the early 1900s, appears to her. He teaches Beck to become an honor runner, dedicating each run to an aspect of creation or a special person in her life. With Tom’s help, Beck is able to turn her life around.

Beans, de doce años, está al límite: dividido entre la niñez inocente y la adolescencia temeraria; forzada a crecer rápido y convertirse en la dura guerrera Mohawk que necesita ser durante la Crisis de Oka, el turbulento levantamiento indígena que desgarró Quebec y Canadá durante 78 tensos días en el verano de 1990.
