Set against the backdrop of the untamed American frontier in the early 19th century, the film plunges viewers into a harrowing tale of survival, vengeance, and the indomitable human spirit.The story unfolds in late 1823, amidst the rugged wilderness of the present-day Dakotas, where fur trapper Hugh Glass, portrayed with raw intensity by Leonardo DiCaprio, leads Captain Andrew Henry’s expedition through treacherous territory.
Accompanied by his half-Pawnee son, Hawk, Glass and the trappers find themselves embroiled in a brutal skirmish with an Arikara war party seeking to rescue their abducted chief’s daughter, Powaqa.
The ambush leaves many of the trappers dead, forcing the survivors to flee on a makeshift boat, guided by Glass’s unyielding determination to navigate away from the vulnerable Missouri River.
