Movie Synopsis
On an unforgiving snow swept frontier, a group of bloodthirsty bounty hunters, prey on a band of persecuted outlaws who have taken to the hills.
As the price on each head is collected, only a mute gunslinger named Silence stands between the innocent refuges and the greed and corruption that the bounty hunters represent.
But, in this harsh and brutal world, the lines between right and wrong aren’t always clear and good doesn’t always triumph.
