The film features interviews with the Gashwarza family who reside at Old Oraibi on Third Mesa. Old Oraibi and Hotevilla both on Third Mesa, are the two oldest continuously occupied villages in the continental U.S.

The Gashwarza family relates the testimony of the late chief Mike Gashwarza, that some of the Hopi clans hail from Jerusalem.
