The film takes place in 1776, during the American Revolutionary War. The American colonies are fighting for independence from British rule, just a few months after signing the Declaration of Independence in July.

REBEL is a gripping, historical drama that plunges us into the gritty turmoil of the American Revolution.

The story jumps into action with Nathan Hale, a young spy for the Continental Army, who infiltrates enemy lines, only to be captured and hanged by the British.

Rebel's path crosses with Sybil Ludington, a fiercely spirited young woman who longs to join the fight for freedom despite societal expectations.

With the help of Caleb, an older, wise former slave, Sybil tames Rebel and forges a deep bond with him as they both navigate their trauma and find their place in the fight for independence.

Through cunning, courage, and friendship, they evade capture by the ruthless Dr. Prosser, who is determined to recapture Rebel for his own sinister purposes.
