The film will be demonstrated within film festival "Spektrs VI": http://www.forumcinemas.lv/Events/Spektrs/. If Wes Anderson and Quentin Tarantino made a film together, this is what it would look like: an eccentric Western consisting equally of romance, adventure, shoot-outs and black humour. This is John Maclean's, a former musician with The Beta Band, debut feature; it has been praised by critics for its imaginative take on the classic genre, earning it a Grand Jury's Prize at the Sundance Film Festival. In the 1870s, sixteen-year-old Jay comes to America from Scotland to look up his first true love Rose. The lad is taken under his wing by certain Silas Selleck, a mysterious traveller who has seen it all. Together, they set off to the Wild West, a journey that could teach a lesson or two to both the dreamer as well as the cynic.
