Die Schwarzen Adler von Santa Fe
Black Eagle of Santa Fe is a 1965 West German and Italian international co-production western film directed by Alberto Cardone and Ernst Hofbauer.
Plot
Landowner Morton wants to expand his property because he knows about oil deposits under the Indian territory. Settlers also come to the area, as a peace treaty with the Comanches provides security. Disguised as soldiers, Morton has his men attack the Indians. Black Eagle, the chief of the Comanche, then digs up the hatchet. After a bloody raid, the village's surviving settlers seek shelter in the nearby fort commanded by Captain Jackson. Due to the peace treaty, however, the garrison is undermanned and Jackson is unable to act. He hires trapper Clint McPherson to investigate the cause of the Indian uprising, uncovering Morton's deceitful plan, which he tells Black Eagle. He and the Indians arrive at the fort just in time to assist the soldiers and settlers against the attack by Morton's men.
