Overview

""A powerful blend of rock 'n' roll grit and spiritual depth. Sana explores guilt, forgiveness, and cultural identity with heart-wrenching honesty. The desert scenes alone are worth the read."" -Advance Reader In the vast red canyons of the Navajo Nation and the fog-shrouded cliffs of coastal California, two brothers chase a dream that could heal-or destroy-them. Jesse Nakai, a fiery guitarist fueled by ambition and buried guilt, and his younger brother Paul, a serene songwriter guided by ancestral traditions, form the band Sana-a name drawn from a childhood lullaby meaning ""heal."" When a cunning manager offers stardom, their paths fracture: Jesse craves the spotlight to escape his ghosts, while Paul sees music as sacred medicine, a way to restore **hozho**-balance and beauty. As Sana rises from dive bars to sold-out theaters, old wounds reopen. Nightmares plague Jesse, rooted in the tragic death of their father, a revered healer whose final ceremony Jesse fled in rage. Paul grapples with fame's temptation, fearing it corrupts the gift. Manipulated by a ruthless publicist and torn by love for Ajei-a woman pulled back to the reservation-the brothers collide in fury and forgiveness. Through desert visions, a near-fatal accident, and a climactic performance, Jesse must face his deepest enemy: himself. Only by embracing Sana's truth-**healing**-can he find the long way home. A poignant tale of brotherhood, identity, and redemption, Sana weaves raw rock energy with the spiritual depth of Diné tradition. Adapted from the award-winning screenplay by Mike Orton & Robert Aguilar
