River Queen (15)

In the mid 19th century, as New Zealand's indigenous Maori population resists the attempts of European settlers to colonize the islands, surgeon's daughter Sarah embarks on an affair with one of the natives, giving birth to a son called Boy. When the child is kidnapped by his paternal grandfather, who believes that Boy's place is with his people learning Maori customs, Sarah embarks on a perilous journey to find him. In the process, she joins forces with a warrior called Wiremu, whose father Te Kai Po desperately needs Sarah's skills as a medic to lead his tribe against the invaders.
