Focusing on the Riel-led rebellion in the Canadian Red River country, the narrative delves into the complex life of Louis Riel, a religious figure and controversial leader. His struggles with mental health and the ensuing debate over his legacy as either a visionary or a madman highlight themes of racism and the plight of Indigenous peoples, including the Sioux, Cree, and Blackfeet, alongside the Métis. The story captures a tumultuous period marked by violence and the pursuit of nationhood, culminating in Riel's execution and the loss of his vision.
