As settlers begin their westward trek into the lands of the Native Americans, a Union Army Civil War 
officer, eager to experience the "last frontier" before it vanishes, soon finds himself trapped between 
two worlds.

=================

Lt. John Dunbar is dubbed a hero after he accidentally leads Union troops to a victory during the Civil 
War. He requests a position on the western frontier, but finds it deserted. He soon finds out he is not 
alone, but meets a wolf he dubs "Two-socks" and a curious Indian tribe. Dunbar quickly makes friends with 
the tribe, and discovers a white woman who was raised by the Indians. He gradually earns the respect of 
these native people, and sheds his white-man's ways.

=================

Having been sent to a remote outpost in the wilderness of the Dakota territory during the American Civil 
War, Lieutenant John Dunbar encounters, and is eventually accepted into, the local Sioux tribe. He is 
known as "Dances with Wolves" to them and as time passes he becomes enamoured by the beautiful "Stands 
With a Fist". Not soon after, the frontier becomes the frontier no more, and as the army advances on the 
plains, John must make a decision that will not only affect him, but also the lives of the natives he 
now calls his people.
