Set in Bolivia in 1927, the story revolves around famed outlaw Butch Cassidy (Sam Shepard) who survived the gunbattle in 1908 (contrary to the ending of famous 1968 film). Under the alias of "James Blackthorn", he spends the next 19 years raising horses in the mountains of Bolivia. After discovering that Etta Place (Dominique McElligott) has passed away, Cassidy decides to return home to see his son. While riding through the Bolivian desert, he comes across a Spaniard named Eduardo (Eduardo Noriega). In the accidental meeting, Eduardo scares away Cassidy's horse.
