A two-part TV miniseries about General George Custer, focusing on his ambitious post-Civil War career and culminating in the Battle of the Little Bighorn, told through dual narratives: his devoted wife, Libby, and a young Cheyenne woman, Kate, providing a balanced view of Custer's legendary and controversial life and the Native American perspective. The plot follows Custer's rise, his clashes with authority, his controversial attack on the Washita River, and parallels his story with the Native heroes Crazy Horse and Sitting Bull, leading to the tragic last stand.
