JAMES STEWART -- HENRY FONDA MEET IN THE HEAT OF FIRECREEK

Western

A peace-loving, part-time sheriff in the small town of Firecreek must take a stand when a gang of vicious outlaws takes over his town.

VIBE

A grim, sun-baked Western where simmering tension erupts into brutal violence. It feels like a slow-burn descent into chaos, showcasing the fragility of order against primal, destructive forces. A stark, unflinching look at the West.
