THE MISSION (1986)

Cast

Plot

Jeremy Irons converts a tribe of heathen Indians in the name of God and likewise reforms the man (De Niro) who used to sell them into slavery. Their peaceful mission is shattered when the Christian church moves to exterminate their flock in the name of political expediency, how will these men of god react? Beautifully photographed, so beautiful that the cinematography is worth the watch alone.
