A young cowboy Brady Blackburn (Brady Jandreau) got a tragic riding accident at the rodeo circuit. Back home, Brady finds himself wondering what he has to live for when he can no longer do what gives him a sense of purpose: to ride and compete. In an attempt to regain control of his fate, Brady undertakes a search for new identity and tries to redefine his idea of what it means to be a man in the heartland of America. - source : Firstshowing
