Turquoise Rose

Turquoise Rose is a 2007 independent drama film co-written and directed by Holt Hamilton that takes place in the Navajo Nation.

She reluctantly agrees to stay with her grandmother on the Navajo reservation while she recovers from an illness.

Over the summer she bonds deeply with her feisty and traditional grandmother in their rural homeland.

Along the way she also gets to know the locals, including beginning a relationship with a handsome young artist named Harry, who has got personal issues of his own.

Through many happy and sad memories, she gains a sense of purpose upon returning to the city and uses her skills in photography to make a change in her life, while honoring the experiences with her grandmother, with Harry by her side.
