Kevin Costner’s latest film chronicles ‘the promise of what America could be for those who emigrated from Europe’

Kevin Costner’s latest feature film tells the history of America in four episodes, through the saga of the settlers who set out to conquer the West. For the American director, “it’s more the promise of what America could be for those who emigrated from Europe“. According to him, “they were promised that there was more land in the United States than anyone could imagine. They were promised that if you were tenacious enough, strong enough, you could become its master.”

The film notably features seven actresses with strong roles. “You can’t have a story about the conquest of the West without including women. It seemed normal to me“says Kevin Costner.”All the women who watch this film, perhaps, will recognize themselves and perhaps they will have the instinct to bring their children to it.“, he continues.
