A forest and wildlife enthusiast, Aqqa became the best hunter in his region at an early age. His wide-ranging knowledge of the forest is matched only by his immutable sense of freedom. Attempts to domesticate this wild soul turned him into a bloodthirsty bandit. With his gang, he sowed terror throughout the 1990s. The legend of Boulouhouch spreads throughout the country, presenting him as a mythical being with superhuman powers who had to be taken down in an increasingly modernized and rationalized Morocco. The film explores the fall of a man in search of freedom in a green far-west; the Atlas Mountains.

After crossing the border illegally for work, Miguel, a hard-working father and devoted husband, finds himself wrongfully accused of murdering a former sheriff’s wife. After learning of his imprisonment, Miguel’s pregnant wife tries to come to his aid and lands in the hands of corrupt coyotes who hold her for ransom. Dissatisfied with the police department’s investigation, the former sheriff tries to uncover the truth about his wife’s death and discovers disturbing evidence that will destroy one family’s future, or tear another’s apart.

The murder of her father sends a teenage tomboy on a mission of 'justice', which involves avenging her father's death. She recruits a tough old marshal, 'Rooster' Cogburn because he has 'true grit', and a reputation of getting the job done.
