Charles Bronson stars as the brooding horse breaker Chino Valdez in this thoughtful cowboy story that also features Jill Ireland and Michael Bozzuffi. An Indian-Mexican half-breed, Valdez has only ever felt at home in the company of his beloved horses.
But his world is shaken both by an unlikely friendship with a 15-year-old runaway desperate to learn the life of a cowboy and by the burgeoning and illicit romance with the beautiful daughter of his crooked partner.
