"To Walk in Beauty...Again"

 "To Walk in Beauty...Again"
A Dine' (Navajo) Documentary Film Project


To Walk in Beauty...Again is a documentary that follows the journey of Ryan Begay, a Navajo veteran and filmmaker living in Albuquerque, New Mexico, as he returns to the Navajo Nation in hopes of re-connecting to people, place, language, and traditional knowledge. It is a story about courage and the importance of language and culture,
as well as the relationships in our lives.

Language

Picture
Ryan Begay grew up in the town of Flagstaff, AZ, a Navajo nation "border town." While  he was raised with the Navajo culture around him, not having the ability to speak the Navajo language detached him from understanding Navajo-centered ways of knowing. After high school, he left the boundaries of his homeland and enlisted in the Air Force. His interest in film grew and a new career path emerged. During all of this, Ryan rarely made trips back to the Navajo Nation. The feeling of being lost and disconnected is too great to ignore. His major motivation for this project are his two children, Magdalena and Nathaniel.
