“From the four winds they came, the four brothers, their eyes smoking and their fingers itching...”

Western

The four sons of Katie Elder reunite in their Hometown of Clearwater, Texas for their Mother's funeral, and discover that the family ranch is now in the hands of Morgan Hastings, the town's gunsmith.

VIBE

A somber, dusty Western where brothers reunite to reclaim their birthright. It's a slow burn of simmering resentment and quiet determination, steeped in the melancholic beauty of the frontier and the enduring bonds of family.
