At the end of the Civil War, a Union soldier is released from prison and travels with a fellow prisoner to Missouri where his travelling companion is shot and hung for horse stealing. California decides to take the dead companion's belongings to his family's ranch, where he falls in love with his friend's sister. But then the "ghosts" of the war return in an unexpected way haunting him again.
A brutal, sun-baked journey through post-war desolation. This film feels like dust and desperation, a grim testament to the lingering violence of conflict and the harshness of the frontier. It's a stark, unforgiving experience.
