Na palube sa však zoznámila s chudobným írskym mladíkom Jackom Dawsonom (Leonardo DiCaprio), nadaným malairom, s ktorým prežila najkrajšiu chvíľu lásky.

Keď Druhá svetová vojna ešte vyzerala nerozhodne, na diaľku sa odohrával dramatický súboj medzi Spojenými štátmi a Nemeckom, kto prvý zostrojí atómovú bombu a získa tak rozhodujúcu prevahu nad nepriateľom. V USA bol tento tajný výskum známy ako Projekt Manhattan a jedným z jeho kľúčových aktérov bol astrofyzik Robert Oppenheimer. Pod obrovským časovým tlakom sa spolu s tímom ďalších vedcov snažil zostrojiť vynález, ktorý mal potenciál zničiť svet. Bez jeho včasného dokončenia by sa ten istý svet nedal zachrániť…

Pred päťdesiatimi rokmi sa pol miliarda ľudí tlačila pri televízoroch, aby v priamom prenose sledovali pristátie posádky Apolla 11 na Mesiaci. Krátko nato astronaut Neil Armstrong vyslovil slávnu vetu „Je to malý krok pre človeka, obrovský skok pre ľudstvo,“ a počin, ktorý sa stal možno najodvážnejšou výpravou od plavby Kryštofa Kolumbusa, bol týmto úspešne zakončený. Rovnako fascinujúca, bola aj éra, ktorá tomuto letu predchádzala, a životný príbeh človeka, ktorý dostal to privilégium urobiť na Mesiaci prvý „ľudský“ krok.

Odvážny farmár John Chisum patrí do starých čias, kedy civilizáciou nedotknutá pôda patrila Indiánom a biely muž tu mohol zvíťaziť len vďaka mimoriadnej odvahe a vytrvalosti. Vtedy Chisum prihnal svoje stádo dobytka do Nového Mexika a stal sa kráľom Pecosu – vlastníkom obrovského územia a tiež najväčšieho vodného zdroja v okolí. Dnes preto rád spomína na svoju mladosť. To ale ešte netuší, že si bude musieť zanedlho spomenúť na svoje strelecké umenie, ktoré v dobe mieru príliš nepoužíva. V mestečku Lincoln sa totiž usadil pán Murphy, ktorý tu otvoril banku, odkúpil všetky obchody a pôdu okolo Chisumovho územia. Nechce sa však uspokojiť s tím, čo doposiaľ získal – chce si privlastniť aj Chisumove pozemky. Potom by samozrejme nenechával farmárom vodu pre ich stáda len tak zadarmo ako Chisum.
