About the film: Through on-camera interviews, compelling footage and historical photographs, the film weaves together a dynamic and nearly forgotten story of the American West and the Jewish American experience. The Wild West stories of historical Jewish figures, such as Golda Meir and Levi Strauss, will fascinate audiences and well known characters Wyatt Earp, Black Jack Ketchum and Pancho Villa make appearances.
