Cowboy Killer

In a surreal rendition of Brooklyn, young Sue, the only child of his financially struggling mother June, finds solace in spaghetti westerns, using them as a reprieve from his oppressive reality under the thumb of Randy S. Martin, their brutal Slumlord.

Each day more fateful than the last, once again Randy makes an unwelcome appearance. With every heavy footstep and cruel smirk, he reminds June and Sue of their subservience. Sue’s only act of defiance is drowning out Randy's threats by diving into his favorite western flick.

A decade later, the intimidation hasn't waned. Now a teenager, Sue's escapist fantasies grow more intense. But escapism is no longer enough. Fueled by scenes of frontier justice, he dreams of a world where he's no longer the victim, but the revenge — the "Cowboy Killer."

As reality and fantasy blur, Sue's newfound courage brings him face to face with Randy at a dilapidated warehouse. But when the dust settles from their confrontation, it's June who confronts her demons.
