Indian Summer

Its September l936, potato harvest season in northern Maine.

Teenager Sarah London (half native American) is already dealing

with racial discrimination in her community when illness strikes

her family and she goes to work in the potato fi elds with the

Oromocto Indians. Tragically, she loses her mother, and when her

father leaves town for work, Sarah is forced to stay with an estranged

paternal grandmother whom she finds cold and intimidating.

Unhappy and bewildered, she runs away to live with an Oromocto

family, but her life with them is not what she expects. As she reacts

to their way of life, will she reach a new understanding of her own

values and self worth?
