Brady, a celebrated bronco rider living on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota and recovering from a head injury from falling off a bucking horse, is struggling to find a new way to live and earn, after the doctors warn him that riding again will kill him. A beguiling mix of fiction and docudrama, the film explores the physical and psychological impact on a modern cowboy denied the only life he has known. A tender, lyrical tale of loss and recovery.
