In an Old West town, the respected Marshal secretly leads a gang of Masked Raiders robbing banks and stagecoaches. He always kills his partners, claiming the loot and the reward for their corpses. Lettie, whose brother was one of his victims, seeks the truth. But when Lettie and the town mortician, Curtis, find a mysterious sunstone, a deadly curse threatens them all. Will Lettie uncover the Marshal's secret, or will the sunstone's power claim them both?
Writer's Statement:
Inspired by the Coen Brothers' dark humor and the morally complex characters of classic Westerns, I wrote 'Outlaw Sunset'. I wanted to explore the duality of good and evil, the fine line between justice and vengeance. This story is about the consequences of our actions and the unexpected twists of fate that shape our lives. The sunstone serves as a macguffin, driving the plot forward with deadly consequences, mirroring the unpredictable nature of the Wild West itself. I hope audiences will find the unexpected turns and moral ambiguities as compelling as I did.
