The film depicts the life of Augusto César Sandino (1895–1934), the leader of the Nicaraguan resistance against the US occupation army between 1927 and 1933, as well as the National Guard that was organized against him after the Marines' defeat.

The movie features several real-life characters, including Calvin Coolidge (President of the United States), Nicaraguan dictator Anastasio Somoza, Salvadoran revolutionary Farabundo Martí, the country's President Juan Bautista Sacasa, Colonel Logan Feland and Captain Gilbert D. Hatfield of the Navy, as well as Blanca Aráuz Pineda, Sandino's wife and a telegraph operator from the town of San Rafael del Norte, Jinotega. Young workers who fought alongside Sandino, such as generals Francisco Estrada, José Gregorio Colindres, and Pedro Altamirano Pedrón, as well as Teresa Villatoro, Sandino's mountain wife, also make appearances.
