In 1893, three men are sent out on an expedition to reclaim land for a businessman (Alfredo Castro); they are an indigenous worker (Camilo Arancibia), a British military veteran (Mark Stanley) and a Texas mercenary (Benjamin Westfall).

A sort of Patagonia Western that addresses a dark chapter, the genocide of the Onas, who were hunted by men who wanted their land and whose activities helped build Chile and Argentina as nations.

A gruesome tale, somewhat episodic, with absurd moments and characterizations, but the locations, intense music score and authentic ambition help.
