A gritty feminist manifesto.
Desire for self-reliance, and the need for love, collide in a small western town in 1886, as two women, compromised by a world built by and for men, fight for agency, self-actualization, and ultimately, one another. A fiercely and unapologetically female story set to the tune of a classic western.
