Wildcatter Jeff Dawson does his best to bring in a gusher in Mexico despite continual bandit raids. He asks for help from his ex-employer Ward Conway, but Conway, now married to Dawson's ex-lover Marina refuses, fearing that his wife will want to renew her romance with the other man.

VIBE

A dusty, sun-baked struggle for oil and love, where ambition clashes with loyalty. This is a classic Western noir, full of simmering tension and hard choices under the Mexican sun.
