À l'aube de l'Amérique(American Primeval) is a six-part miniseries that explores violence and resilience in 1857 America, a time when survival was a daily struggle. Directed by Pete Berg(Friday Night Lights) and written by Mark L. Smith(The Revenant), the series highlights the bloody struggles for control of the land between settlers, natives and newcomers.
With an impressive cast, including Taylor Kitsch(True Detective), Betty Gilpin(Glow), and Dane DeHaan (The Staircase), the series blends drama, action and westerns to offer a poignant immersion in a period when hatred and fear dominated. Supported by a team of indigenous cultural advisors, At the Dawn of America also strives to represent different communities with respect and authenticity.
Dawn of America will air on Netflix from January 9, 2025.
Synopsis: America, 1857. Chaos reigns, suffering is omnipresent, and only survival counts. In this land of violence where compassion is rare, Isaac Reed, a traumatized man, tries to find a reason to live amid the struggles for control of the American West. Between cultural, religious and personal conflicts, this story explores the sacrifices and hopes of the men and women who shape a nation in the throes of change.
À l'aube de l'Amérique will appeal to fans of modern westerns and violent historical narratives, like series such as Godless or 1883. Fans of cinematic frescoes, mixing action and psychological drama, will find here an immersive and emotionally rich work.
What sets the series apart is its respectful, documented approach to aboriginal cultures, thanks to close collaboration with advisors from the Shoshone, Bannock, and Osage communities. With what promises to be meticulous direction and immersive photography, the series promises to capture both the brutality and beauty of a time when hope and disillusionment rubbed shoulders.
At the Dawn of America is an epic tale of the birth of a country marked by violence and power struggles. With its intense performances and poignant storytelling, this series is a must-see for fans of historical dramas and modern Westerns.
