Description
When nine-year-old Roman Rodriguez learns that his father has suffered a life-threatening injury in Iraq, it changes his life forever. While his mother and little sister travel to Germany to be with Roman's father at a military hospital, he is sent to El Puerto, a small New Mexico village to stay with his grandparents. There he confronts doubt and regret about himself and his family. Roman grows angry when he discovers his mother and grandmother are keeping his father's true condition a secret. He turns to his grandfather for answers. Grandpa Joe explains that three constants in his life have helped him make sense of tragedy: his faith, his family and the land. Now, Roman must grapple with his worst fears about his dad as he and Grandpa Joe make the Good Friday pilgrimage to "El Santuario de Chimayo," a sacred site in northern New Mexico said to have healing powers.
