On the eve of his execution in 1870s Montana, Isaac Broadway makes one last, impossible demand of his estranged son Henry: track down and kill the man who framed him for a crime he didn’t commit. Henry returns to a brutal frontier lit by lawless towns, greedy claim-jumpers, and whispered alliances, dragging with him a lifetime of resentment and a fragile hope for reconciliation. As he pieces together the conspiracy that destroyed his father, he confronts not only the hired guns and corrupt officials behind the frame but also the painful truths that drove him away from home.
The hunt becomes a reckoning, forcing Henry to choose between becoming the vengeance his father asks for and breaking a cycle of violence that has poisoned their family and the wider community. Against a backdrop of stark Montana landscapes and raw period detail, the film blends tense action with intimate drama, exploring themes of loyalty, justice, and redemption. The result is a gritty, morally complex Western where every gunshot echoes a larger question about what it takes to put the past to rest.
