With their village under siege by the Romans, Asterix and Obelix set out after Getafix. They end up in America, where Asterix is captured by a tribe of Indians, who already hold Getafix prisoner. After Obelix saves the chief′s daughter from a stampeding herd of buffalo; he defeats the tribe‚s mightiest brave and rescues his two comrades from the stake.
