The Return of a Man Called Horse (1976)

In the harsh reality of the 1840s, backed by governmental might, trappers ruthlessly displace the Yellow Hands Sioux from their hallowed grounds. The Sioux respond by retreating into a realm of apocalyptic spirituality, passively anticipating divine retribution to rain down on their oppressors. Halfway across the globe, in England, Lord John Morgan senses his spirit diminishing. Stirred by this internal crisis, he embarks on a journey back to America to reunite with the Yellow Hand tribe. On arrival, he finds their spirits crushed. With a unity of purpose, he revitalises them and himself through a series of self-inflicted pain and invigorating rituals. Once he galvanizes the clan to confront their oppressors directly, Horse takes on the monumental task of crafting a strategy to seize the trappers' stronghold. The women and children of the clan are entrusted with unique roles in this daring assault, each contributing to the collective effort to reclaim their sacred land. The Return of a Man Called Horse is a riveting tale of resilience, spirituality, and the struggle for justice, stirring the heart and challenging the spirit.
