You can’t outrun history, but you can run with it. On the Yerington Paiute Reservation in Nevada, high school track star Ku dreams of being recruited by the University of Oregon. With his father, Delmar, as coach, and his mother, Misty, by his side, Ku is determined to make it. As he trains for his final qualifying race, buried emotions of anger and grief linked to his family’s past surface. Ku’s rites of passage intertwine with the story of his great-grandfather, who escaped an Indian boarding school by running 50 miles. In a powerful act of remembrance, Ku leads his community in a 50-mile race, confronting history while racing toward his future.
