The Civil War is over and the West offers unlimited opportunities for the adventurous. Yet the celebration is short-lived for Caleb Revers a black veteran trying to plant roots under the scorching sun of the Arizona frontier. A kindly neighbor gives Revers a horse to help plow the land and support his wife Ivy and their precocious 12-year-old son Billy. But town bigots resent a black man owning a horse and the stallion is stolen so Revers and his son embark on a dangerous mission to get it back. (official distributor synopsis)
