Tierra del Fuego, Chile, 1901. Three horsemen embark on an expedition, tasked with securing a wealthy landowner’s vast property. Accompanying a British lieutenant and an American mercenary is a mestizo marksman, who comes to realize the true mission is to violently “remove” the Indigenous population. A visceral reckoning with national myth, The Settlers is a revisionist, anticolonialist western marking the debut of writer-director Felipe Gálvez Haberle, a revelatory new cinematic voice.
