Some things are worth fighting for. This remarkable story of the Agojie -- the all-female unit of warriors who protected the African kingdom of Dahomey in the 1800s -- chronicles the epic journey of General Nanisca (Oscar-winner Viola Davis) as she inspires the king to take on the enemies determined to violate their honor and destroy their way of life.

Meanwhile, unassuming garbage collector Robbie Prendergrast (Tom Pelphrey) struggles to eke out a better life for his family, but a series of poor decisions lands him in the crosshairs of law enforcement and the Dark Hearts, a notorious local biker gang. While reckoning with their troubled pasts, Tom and Robbie each attempt to keep their fractured families together – as their decisions draw them onto a deadly collision course with each other.
