The murder of her father sends a teenage tomboy on a mission of 'justice', which involves avenging her father's death. She recruits a tough old marshal, 'Rooster' Cogburn because he has 'true grit', and a reputation of getting the job done.

VIBE

This is a journey through a harsh, unforgiving landscape, imbued with a steely resolve. It feels like a search for something primal and earned, driven by a young spirit and guided by a weathered hand. The tone is both somber and triumphant, a testament to enduring will.
