A historical Western depicting Geronimo's defiant resistance against colonial forces, balancing action and the tragedy of a people's displacement.

In 1883, the Apache Indians lead by Geronimo reluctantly surrender to the attacks of American and Mexican troops, in exchange for a territory and food for their warriors. Soon though, Geronimo escapes the camps and declares war against the Americans.
