The Ghost Dance Messiah blends Native American spiritual themes
with with modern environmental activism. An unemployed Vietnam
veteran on a trip to Reno has a near-death experience which leads
to him joining a group of activists on a journey around Nevada. In
a vision he learns he must revive the Ghost Dance, a native
American religious movement of the 1890's. The group protests at
the nuclear test site, trespasses on a bombing range and visits
several reservations. As they reach the sacred mountain of the
Paiutes, a religious revival blossoms in the desert, much to the
authorities' chagrin.
