				"Within the Cheyenne tribe 
				there used to be a military society made up of the strongest and 
				bravest men. They were fierce fighters - unyielding. They called 
				themselves Chotometnea - dogmen." - Prof. Lillian 
				Sloan  
				Why watch this? A 
				lost Native American tribe that has survived in the wilderness - 
				count me in. 
				Plot Summary: 
				A Montana bounty hunter tracks escaped convicts into a remote 
				wilderness and discovers a hidden tribe of Cheyenne Indians, 
				thought to have been wiped out over a century ago. With an 
				anthropologist's help, he must decide whether to expose the 
				tribe to the modern world or protect its ancient way of life. 
				The pair finds themselves in a race against time, forced to face 
				the dangers of both nature and civilization. Dad's Preview: 
				There were a whole slew of bounty hunter films from the 90's. 
				This one, however, has a plot that makes it unique, and worth 
				your time. This neo-Western has a feel of legitimacy thanks to a 
				great cast, some incredible mountain scenery and a powerful 
				soundtrack. This adventure is better early on, and does get a 
				little formulaic at the end, but don't let that deter you. It is 
				a very good flick, especially if you favor Native American films. 
				Seriously, the premise is not as far-fetched as you might 
				think... heck there were some tribes still roaming our continent 
				only 200 years ago.
