In 1845, America was up for grabs. The Civil War was yet to take place and much of the land was unexplored and unclaimed. A great westward migration was taking place, with thousands of families trekking from Missouri towards Oregon in search of a home. In Meek's Cutoff — a thought-provoking and suspenseful reworking of the usually macho Western — a group of such families begin to regret their decision to hire Stephen Meek as a guide when they end up lost in the middle of nowhere. An encounter with a knowledgeable Native American could prove to be their salvation, but will they trust him?
