Storyline

After their master dies, servants Thomas (Brendan Dillon) and Devon (Kate Manx) and their children become homesteaders on a coastal island. But when Thomas is murdered by villainous settlers hoping to claim the land for themselves, Devon must raise the kids -- and fight off more attacks -- by herself. Luckily, however, she gets help from Jacob (James Mason), a mysterious shipwrecked stranger, and Nicholas (Rip Torn), a kindly sailor and slave ship escapee.



Short Review

Weak acting performances and what appears to be a low budget production. The storyline appears to be a study of a needed drift from pacifism to violence.
