影片根据真实故事改编,1956年,五名立志将基督之名传播到蛮夷之地的传教士抛弃了在美国的舒适安宁生活,乘飞机进入厄瓜多尔的原始丛林,希望能够向当地尚未开化的印第安部落土著宣讲福音,然而不幸的是,他们几乎刚刚踏上这个部落的领地,就被手持长矛的印第安人杀害…… 

明卡亚尼是Waodani部落的勇敢战士,他目睹了几位传教士被杀害的整个过程,也看到他们虽然手持枪械却始终未扣动扳机,直到被害前也坚决不放弃自己的宗教信仰,战斗结束之后,明卡亚尼找到传教士的遗物,并期待着能够再见到这些外面世界来的人,以便有机会解开自己心头的这些疑问。   

两年后,其中两位传教士的妻子和妹妹来到厄瓜多尔的热带雨林,心怀她们所爱之人的遗志,重新向部落居民宣传福音,在这里她们再次遇到已经成为部落首领的明卡亚尼……

In 1956, five American missionaries were killed by members of an Ecuadoran tribe called the Waodani. The Americans had been trying to penetrate the tribe’s isolated culture, befriend its members, and bring them to Christ, but instead met their deaths at the hands of the Waodani’s spears. The story could have easily ended there, another violent clash between disparate peoples. But that was only the beginning. In a decision that would have been unimaginable to most people, the wives and children of the murdered missionaries moved into the Waodani village and helped to care for them, successfully forging a friendship that transformed all of them.
