Quick Answer

What is Hundra about?

Hundra is a 1983 Italy-Spain-USA action, adventure, fantasy, and science fiction film directed by Matt Cimber about the last surviving Amazon warrior seeking to preserve her tribe's legacy after a massacre.

Programmer's Pick

Hundra is what happens when you toss a barbarian queen into a boys’ club and hand her both a sword and an attitude. Expect plenty of bareback riding, brutal brawls, and a heroine who’d rather fight than flirt—until fate puts her in search of a suitable mate.

After a brutal attack leaves her the sole survivor of her tribe, Hundra seeks wisdom from an elder and learns that her destiny may involve motherhood to ensure her people do not vanish forever. Reluctantly, she embarks on a journey to find a worthy father for her child, encountering a variety of men ranging from sadists to self-serving criminals. The film blends sword and sorcery action with the unique predicament of a fierce female protagonist navigating a world that thrives on patriarchal violence, all while maintaining her independence and sense of purpose.
