ABOUT THE FILM

LOGLINE

For the first time in a century, fearless young cowgirls battle broncs and their own personal demons on a perilous rodeo circuit, risking it all to claim the first-ever women’s world title at Cheyenne Frontier Days.

LONG SYNOPSIS

For the first time in a century, rough and rowdy cowgirls compete in a life and death rodeo event to be crowned the world champion of women’s bronc riding. CHEYENNE follows the journeys of these athletes as they make their way through a yearlong rodeo circuit, culminating with the finals at the storied Cheyenne Frontier Days. With their lives on the line and the odds stacked against them, our characters give us full access into the thrilling world of rodeo, both on and off the broncs. Their journeys are grounded in their adrenaline-fueled lives as bronc riders, but also unveil a far greater narrative about the human condition and the lengths we go to to heal and survive.
