Set in the remote mountain region of Montana known as the Oxbow Quadrangle, Last of the Dogmen begins with bounty hunter Lewis Gates being sent to track down three dangerous escaped convicts. As he follows their trail deep into the wilderness, he discovers unexpected evidence—ancient arrows and signs of horseback travel—that don’t match anything from the modern world. When the convicts are found dead, killed by unknown attackers using traditional Native American weapons, Gates begins to suspect that something extraordinary is hidden in the mountains.

Curious and disturbed by his findings, Gates seeks out Dr. Lillian Sloan, a Native American history expert. Together, they venture back into the wilderness and make a startling discovery: a tribe of Cheyenne Indians has survived in complete isolation since the 1864 massacre at Sand Creek. Cut off from the outside world for over a century, the tribe has kept its traditions, language, and warrior ways intact, untouched by modern civilization.

As Gates and Sloan attempt to learn more about the tribe, they face challenges of communication, trust, and cultural respect. The tribe is wary of outsiders, fearing the destruction that contact might bring. Meanwhile, government forces begin closing in on the area, creating urgency and moral conflict over what should be done. Should the tribe remain a secret, or should they be introduced to the modern world?

Last of the Dogmen is more than an adventure story—it’s a reflection on the survival of indigenous cultures and the consequences of intrusion. Blending action, history, and heartfelt emotion, the film explores the clash between old and new worlds and challenges viewers to consider the value of heritage and the importance of protecting what remains of ancient traditions.
