In this WWII drama, we follow the story of Joe Enders, an enthusiastic Marine soldier who is tasked with safeguarding a highly secretive Navajo communicator known as a "windtalker." The windtalkers were Native Americans whose indigenous language was impenetrable to Japanese code-breakers, enabling them to transmit crucial messages without fear of interception. Joe's role becomes both a test of his combat skills and cultural understanding as he must navigate the complexities of war while fostering trust with the windtalker under his protection. The film delves into themes of camaraderie, resilience, and the power of language against adversity amidst the backdrop of one of history's most devastating conflicts.
