China 9, Liberty 37

The deadliest crossroad.

A spaghetti western about a condemned gunslinger forced into a moral bind between survival and conscience, set against the clash between frontier independence and industrial expansion.

Gunslinger Clayton Drumm is about to be hanged when he is given a chance to live if he agrees to murder Matthew, a miner who has steadfastly refused to sell his land to the railroad company. Matthew’s refusal is a major obstacle to the railroad’s plans for expansion.
