The streamer's fictional limited series from Pete Berg, Mark L. Smith and Eric Newman is set in the brutal American frontier of 1857.
that is a raw, adventurous exploration of the birth of the American West. As for the violence depicted in the series, as is shown in the trailer, the series’ Native consultant Julie O’Keefe toldis described as a fictionalized dramatization and examination of the violent collision of culture, religion and community as men and women fight and die to either keep or claim the lands that make up the brutal American frontier.
The logline reads: “This is America…1857. Up is down, pain is everywhere, innocence and tranquility are losing the battle to hatred and fear. Peace is the shrinking minority, and very few possess grace — even fewer know compassion. There is no safe haven in these brutal lands, and only one goal matters: survival.”brought on O’Keefe as the Indigenous Cultural Consultant and Project Advisor.
“My approach comes from an academic approach focused on authenticity. It is assumed by the majority in Hollywood that one person can answer any ‘Native American’ question. There are 574 federally recognized Tribal Nations in the U.S., so that is literally impossible,” she said.
