he Powhatan tribe lives in harmony with nature deep
within the ancient forests. Pocahontas, the chief's daughter, is
becoming an adult. She knows something wonderful is coming "just
around the riverbend." But the waters may also bring trouble.
Indeed, English settlers are sailing across the Atlantic. They see
the ancient wilderness as a New World full of riches -- riches they
can take. Whatever they cannot take, they want to change, and they
want to change Pocahontas' world. |

Pocahontas, whose name means "Little Mischief," is based on a real
historical figure. She was born into a highly sophisticated Indian
culture that had some knowledge of Europeans. So when she
encounters lead scout John Smith, a moment of magic occurs. John
Smith finds Pocahontas. She does not run. He cannot hurt her. A
friendship is born -- a small but powerful bridge between two
worlds. Their friendship grows. Pocahontas shows John Smith how to
live in nature, how to "paint with all the colors of the wind." He
sees that this world is worth more than gold.
