A struggling father is separated from his daughter and sent to a harsh prison, where a warden offers him a chance at freedom. He must lead a group of prisoners on a perilous journey through the wilderness to move a valuable gold cargo, while facing dangers within and beyond their crew.
You may enjoy this if you like period adventure stories about dangerous wilderness journeys and a capable central performance; Not for you if you want brisk pacing, complex characters, or a highly suspenseful plot.
