The heroism of the 189 Texans, Tejanos and settlers who defended the besieged Alamo fort for 13 days against the Mexican army of General Santa Anna is recreated in Alamo: The Price of Freedom. Although the Alamo fell and the defenders were slain, the memory of the battle served as a rallying cry in the fight for Texas' independence from Mexico. The docu-drama recreates battle scenes and dramatic incidents involving such famous historical figures as David Crockett, William Barret Travis, James Bowie, Juan Seguin and General Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna.
