Florida, 1830 - Of all eastern Native American tribes, only the Seminoles have resisted being moved to reservations. Having retreated to Florida, they live a simple horticultural life. But white plantation owners, angry at the increasing numbers of black slaves fleeing to Seminole protection, want to take their land. Plantation owner Raynes, in particular, has convinced the military to wipe out the Seminoles. His rival Moore, a sawmill owner from the North who has a Seminole wife, is against slavery and considers it unprofitable. Chief Osceola sees the coming danger; he tries to avoid provoking the whites, but cannot prevent the war that breaks out in 1835.

Indian boys play in front of a tent camp on the prairie. They imitate the buffalo dance of the hunters. One boy doesn't like it. He wants to take part in the hunt, but is still too young. He sets off on his own and shoots a deer. An old chief meets him at the kill and tells him the story of the rainbow: a boy misused his magic bow and shot all the animals he could track down. The bear called him to account for this. The bear threw the boy's bow and arrows into the air. The result was the rainbow, a reminder to all hunters that no animal should be killed without need. The boy returns to the camp and joins in with the children's game.
