A bittersweet comedy about aging stuntmen clinging to faded glory in a forgotten Western movie town, blending action spectacle with melancholic reflection on obsolescence and camaraderie.

Almería, Tabernas desert, Spain, 2002. Texas Hollywood is a dilapidated and dusty town where Western movies have not been shot for decades. Julián Torralba and his partners, veteran film stuntmen, survive there, recreating pathetic action scenes for the pleasure of the few foreign tourists who visit the isolated region.
