Pierce Brosnan is Archibald Belaney, a British man who grew up fascinated with Native American culture - so much so that he reinvented himself as Archie Grey Owl and live in the wild as a North American Indian before eventually becoming an environmental activist. Archie Grey Owl was living a largely solitary life when he met a young Indian woman named Anahareo (Annie Galipeau), nicknamed Pony. Pony is fascinated by Archie, largely because she wants to know about her people's heritage as her father, Jim (Graham Greene), is a businessman who wears a suit to work and has little concern for his history. Archie has little use for Pony at first, but in time the two begin to bond, and it's Pony who convinces Archie to give up trapping and work to protect animals, eventually writing a book. Soon, Archie had become the most famous red Indian in the world, delivering public speeches making people aware of the nature that so many had taken for granted in this amazing true story of Grey Owl...
