Quick Synopsis

During World War II, Marine Joe Enders is assigned to protect a Navajo code talker, one of the Native American soldiers who use their unique language to send secure military messages that Japanese forces cannot decode. As they work together in the Pacific theater, Joe must ensure the safety of the code talker while navigating the dangers of war.

Detailed Synopsis of Windtalkers

Joe Enders is a gung-ho Marine assigned to protect a "windtalker" - one of several Navajo Indians who were used to relay messages during World War II because their spoken language was indecipherable to Japanese code breakers.
