Sacred Mountain Rising
by
John Gillevet
A troubled native American escapes the repressive life of his reserve, only to become an unwilling war hero and suffer from survivor's guilt. All the while his life is mirrored by the life of a legendary war chief whom the youth envisions in dreams. A brutal and unflinching look at the life and struggles of Pima marine Ira Hayes, this screenplay invites readers to explore the back story of a participant in one of the most famous American historical events, the flag raising at Iwo Jima in 1945. The story is raw and full of heart, and will certainly hold readers and viewers’ interest from the first scene.
