    Drømmeren oplever en overraskende vision i Danmark, men først mange år senere i præriestaten South Dakota forstår han visionens fulde omfang. Efter en smertelig skilsmisse tager drømmeren sin elleveårige søn med på en 7.000 kilometers biltur fra Los Angeles til indianerreservatet Rosebud og tilbage igen. Året efter kører han med sin syttenårige datter 6.000 kilometer fra L.A. til Alamo i Texas, hvor Davy Crockett blev dræbt, og flyver modstræbende alene tilbage til Rosebud. I St. Francis i Rosebud møder han amerikaneren Roger Uliano, som inviterer ham med til Ghost Hawk Park, hvor en gammel indianer indfører dem i lakotaernes kultur. I de følgende år vender de to venner tilbage i Rogers gamle Cadillacer for at deltage i soldansen i Rosebud og i genopførelsen af slaget ved Little Big Horn ved Medicin Tail Coulee i Montana. Drømmeren bliver en del af Doris Leader Charges lakotafamilie i Rosebud og møder gennem hende sin nære ven lakotabroren Norman Keeler og medicinmanden Roy Stone. Drømmeren vender hver sommer tilbage til Rosebud og prærien, hvor soldansen og det hellige bjerg Bear Butte bliver højdepunkterne i den svære kunst at bede. Uddrag af bogen ‘Healingceremonien skal foregå i eftermiddag,’ sagde Seth hviskende bag mig, den gamle firekeeper havde været med mig hele tiden og havde mærket min sorg. Jeg vendte mig om og så ind i den aldrende lakotas medfølende øjne. Soldanserne gik ud til hvilestedet, mens jeg fulgtes med Seth tilbage til bålpladsen, hvor medicinmanden bad mig koge en spand vand til medicinen. Jeg hentede vandet ved vandtanken og satte spand- en sikkert på plads på et par solide brændeknuder over bålet. Vincent skar to slags rødder i småstykker og hældte i vandet, der blev mørkegult. Medicinmanden fortalte, hvad jeg skulle gøre, når medicinvandet kogte. Jeg tog spanden ud af ilden, fordelte vandet gennem et hvidt klæde i to spande og tilsatte flere liter koldt vand. Medicinmanden prøvesmagte medicinen og godkendte den. Spandene blev båret ned til den tætte ring af lakotaer, der stod rundt i soldanscirklen med øjnene vendt mod det hellige træ i midten.
