Frontier

(2020-)

In the movie Frontier set in Texas in 1848, the peaceful existence of two Mexican families, the Iturraldes and the Villareals, is disrupted when the Saxon's arrive to colonize the unpopulated state. The families refuse to sell their ranches to the Mackenzies, an Irish family who are determined to obtain their land at any cost. The Mackenzies have their eyes set on the extensive and fertile land for one reason, oil.

As tensions rise and violence ensues, the families are forced to confront the Mackenzies in a fight for their heritage and way of life. The Iturraldes and the Villareals refuse to back down, realizing that their land holds great value not just for the oil beneath it, but for the memories and traditions it represents.

Frontier takes viewers on a journey through the struggles, sacrifices, and determination of these Mexican families as they fight against the ruthless Mackenzies and stand up for their rights. The movie explores themes of land ownership, heritage, and the pursuit of power, all set against the backdrop of the beautiful and untamed landscapes of Texas.

With its compelling storyline and strong performances, Frontier is a gripping drama that sheds light on a little-known chapter of American history. It serves as a reminder of the resilience and courage of marginalized communities, who fought to protect their homes and preserve their heritage against powerful forces.
