George Custer: Showdown at Little Bighorn examines the events leading up to the 1876 clash between U.S. Army forces and Native American warriors on the northern plains.

Focusing on George Armstrong Custer, the documentary explores the military decisions, intelligence failures, and cultural tensions that culminated in the Battle of the Little Bighorn—one of the most debated engagements in American history.

Through historical analysis, archival imagery, and expert commentary, the film presents perspectives from both the U.S. Army and the Native American tribes involved, including the Lakota Sioux and Northern Cheyenne. Rather than mythologizing the conflict, the documentary places the battle within the broader context of westward expansion and its consequences.
