A Hard Place The chronicle of Billy Wilder, a young man raised in Wyoming about to face both himself and a legends wrath.

It is the turn of the century, wintertime, Bighorn mountain territories. An egotistical local rancher hires a volatile and racist tracker. Their purpose: to hunt a mirage-like animal high into the harsh precipices of the northern mountains. Inquesting the guidance of an enigmatic Indian Tribal elder named Old Bone, Billy engages in the hunt with the promise of youthful adventure.

An unexpected accident suddenly places him squarely within the methodical furies of the hired tracker. A sadistic vendetta is suddenly set into motion. Billy is then forced into a ruthless cycle of retaliatory vengeance , a cycle that perpetuates an intense and harrowing journey high into the brutal expanses of the white zone, climaxed on the windchiseled crests of the Bighorn range.
