AdventureDramaWestern

In the 1870s, a young Harvard dropout seeks his destiny out West by tying his fate to a team of buffalo hunters led by a man named Miller. Together, they embark on a harrowing journey risking life and sanity.

VIBE

This is a raw, unforgiving journey into the heart of a brutal frontier, where the elements and human nature collide. It feels stark and unromantic, a visceral exploration of endurance and the cost of ambition. Expect a slow, deliberate descent into a world both beautiful and terrifyingly indifferent.
