Довбуш – найбільший фільм в історії України – на великих екранах Канади !

Карпати. Початок 18 століття. Жорстоке правління польської шляхти змушує гуцулів тікати в гори. Двоє братів, Олекса та Іван Довбуші, опиняються поза законом і стають опришками. У пошуках помсти панам за вбивство батьків Довбушів, брати стають ворогами один одному. Один прагне грошей, другий – справедливості. Гуцули починають повстання, яке очолює Олекса. Шляхта робить усе можливе, аби знищити Довбуша. Але він їх перехитрив. І розрослася легенда про карпатського лицаря. Легенда, що надихає покоління тих, хто бореться за свободу рідної землі. Про силу і любов Олекси Довбуша, про зраду і кривду. Про те, як він жив і як обманув смерть.
