A group of Jesuit priests in 18th century South America risk everything to protect a vulnerable indigenous tribe from the threat of Portuguese colonization and slavery.

In the heart of South America, a Spanish Jesuit, played by Jeremy Irons, embarks on a perilous journey to establish a mission, driven by his fervent desire to convert the local Indians. His quest is soon joined by a slave hunter, portrayed by Robert De Niro, who undergoes a transformative experience and becomes a devoted ally. As the Spanish colony falls under Portuguese control, the duo must rally to defend their sacred mission against the invading forces.
