Two men from the Laguna Pueblo tribe—Leon and his brother-in-law, Ken—discover Leon’s grandfather, Teofilo, dead in a faded jean jacket and blue jeans under a cottonwood tree not far from the family’s sheep farm. Teofilo had been herding sheep, but since he has been dead for a day, the sheep are now wandering. Leon and Ken gather the sheep, returning them to their pen before tending to Teofilo’s body. Before transporting Teofilo, they begin a Laguna Pueblo death ritual to ensure that Teofilo reaches the afterlife properly. Leon does not tell the priest that his grandfather had passed.

After some convincing, however, Leon goes to Father Paul to get holy water for the Last Rites, but Leon is hesitant. Is this what Teofilo would want?
