What is The West about? Toggle content

The West is a documentary series that chronicles the transformation of the American Old West through the stories of millions of people who sought fortune, freedom, and a fresh start in the vast, untamed territory. Using diaries, letters, and photographs from the era, the film paints a vivid picture of a time and place where courage, perseverance, and violence were a constant presence. The series spans six episodes, each one uncovering a different aspect of the Wild West's rich and complex history: from the early explorers and settlers to the outlaws and lawmen who left their mark on this unforgiving land.
