It's the 1830s in South Africa. Stuart Whitman and Ken Scott desert from the British army and take refuge with Raymond Massey as John Brown... I mean Willem Prinsloo, leader of the Boer Great Trek into the Transvaal. There they fight Indians... I mean Zulus, and fall in love with Juliet Prowse.
This is pretty much an A Western, with the Boers substituted for Mormons, or perhaps folks on the Oregon Trail. Ellis W. Carter, who spent much of his career as cinematographer of movies like SEX KITTENS GO TO COLLEGE, shoots some magnificent landscape, and director George Sherman lets you know that he was a fine director of westerns. With Geraldine Fitzgerald, Eduard Franz and Edward Platt.
