Bury my heart at Wounded Knee.
Inspired by Dee Brown's bestseller, the film begins with the Sioux triumph over General Custer at Little Big Horn. The action centers on the struggles of three characters: Charles Eastman (Adam Beach), a young, Dartmouth-educated Sioux doctor; Sitting Bull (August Schellenberg), the proud Lakota chief who refuses to submit to U.S. policies; and Senator Henry Dawes (Aidan Quinn), one of the men responsible for the government policy on Indian affairs.
