American Primeval: the plot
“American Primeval”, whose plot is set in America in 1857, represents an analysis of that historical period, where “up is down, pain is everywhere, innocence and tranquility are losing the battle against hate and fear. In this context, peace is not what most people aspire to, and very few possess grace and even fewer know compassion. There is no safe haven in these brutal lands and only one goal matters: survival.” This is the picture shown in the Netflix TV series, where there will be no shortage of twists or emotions.
