Chino
“They took his land... his horses... his woman... but... they couldn't take Chino!”
Western
Chino Valdez is a loner horse breeder living in the old west. Partly a loner by choice, and partly because, being a 'half-breed', he finds himself unwelcome almost everywhere he goes. One day, a young runaway named Jimmy shows up at his door looking for work and a roof over his head. Reluctantly, Chino agrees to take him in and teach him the art of raising, breaking and breeding horses, until the pair finally begin to accept each other.
VIBE
This dusty Western feels like a quiet, windswept canyon. It's a stoic and melancholic character study of a man on the fringes, finding solace in the wild and the company of horses. A gritty, lonely experience.
