Au début du XXème siècle, le pétrole a apporté la fortune au peuple Osage qui, du jour au lendemain, est devenu l’un des plus riches du monde. La richesse de ces Amérindiens attire aussitôt la convoitise de Blancs peu recommandables qui intriguent, soutirent et volent autant d’argent Osage que possible avant de recourir au meurtre…
“Killers of the Flower Moon” tells a real-life American horror story, as dozens of members of the Osage Nation were murdered for their money and oil-rich land in 1920s Oklahoma. The film is unflinching in its violence as well as its heartache, showing how a young Osage woman named Mollie (Lily Gladstone) is swept off her feet by the charismatic but cunning Ernest Burkhart , a white man who conspires to kill her entire family.
