And on the Eighth Day

A film celebrating tenacious, bold female characters, And on the Eighth Day, is an exploration of love, legacy, and greed that flips the heist and western genre on its head by telling the story through the female gaze. Set in West Texas in 1994, the town of Valentine is a character in itself. When two men from Chicago travel to West Texas to find thief, Landon Mooney and bring back the stolen $150,000, they get more than they bargained for. They meet Eve, a young woman desperate to get out of town and find Landon Mooney. When Landon tells them the money is gone, a plan is hatched to rob the local check cashing place, where all hell breaks loose. (Dallas International Film Festival)
