Project Detail
Brimstone
Synopsis
A triumphant epic of survival set in the searing wilds of the Badlands, the menacing inferno of the old American West. A tale of powerful womanhood and resistance against the unforgiving cruelty of a hell on earth.
Liz is formed by the beautiful wilderness, full of heart and grit, accused of a crime she didn’t commit, hunted by the vengeful Preacher – a diabolical zealot. But Liz is a genuine survivor; a woman of fearsome strength who responds with astonishing bravery to claim the better life she and her daughter deserve.
Fear not. Retribution is coming.
