Slow West

Set in 19th Century Colorado but undeniably European in sensibility, Slow West tells the story of sixteen-year-old Jay as he travels from Scotland to the Colorado in pursuit of his lost love.

He is quickly confronted by the dangers of the Frontier and so teams up with a mysterious traveller named Silas, who agrees to protect him - for a price. Jay's quest will be one of double-crossing, violence and peril as the guileless adolescent learns that the West takes no pity, least of all on the innocent. 2015 Slow West Film Limited, Slow West NZ Limited, Channel Four Television Corporation, British Film Institute, New Zealand Film Commission.
