Killers of the Flower Moon,” about the systematic killing of Osage Nation members for their oil-rich land in the 1920s, is in many ways far outside Scorsese’s own experience

Based on David Grann’s 2017 best-selling non-fiction book by the same name, the story of Killers of the Flower Moon is set in 1920s Oklahoma

It focuses on the FBI’s investigation of a series of murders of the Osage people that took place in Oklahoma in the early 1920s and came to be known as the “Reign of Terror.”
