Warrior Spirit is a fun film about two boys who meet in a chance encounter. One of the boys , Lukas Haas, is a poor city boy who wants to escape his situation. The other boy , Allan Musy, is under a war because of his heritage. This is a adventure story between friends Rod Elliot, Haas, and Wabi, Musy, in the northern Yukon wilderness.

The adventure becomes simple, Wabi feels he can help Rod with his situation and Rod feels he can gain an upper hand when this offer comes around. Rod carries with him a secret concerning gold in the Rainbow mountains. Rod's concern is to get rich and meanwhile Wabi and his sister are being scouted by a native tribe.

An impressive elemental movie that gives true insight into the wild of nature. Beautifully shot scenes and has good mythos and short legends. I enjoyed watching Mukoki , Jimmy Herman, as the wise mentor. It's sad this film is not on DVD. 9/10
