A Western revenge tragedy that forces a pacifist sheriff to confront his principles through violence, exploring the moral cost of vengeance against the backdrop of the wild frontier.

Sheriff Sean Kilpatrick is a pacifist. Frank Brand is the leader of a band of killers. When their paths cross Kilpatrick is compelled to go against everything he has stood for to bring death to Brand and his gang. Through his hunt into Mexico he is challenged by a noble Mexican Sheriff interested only in carrying out the law - not vengeance.
