Jim Caviezel (The Passion of the Christ) leads this true story as Ward Allen, a white American in the early 20th Century who walks away from his plantation heritage for a life as a river-dwelling hunter. Oscar-nominee Chiwetel Ejiofor (12 Years a Slave) co-stars as freed slave - and Ward’s friend - Christmas Moultrie.
