It is the late 1960s, and in the Roman countryside, next to the construction sites of the burgeoning working-class suburbs, dozens of western films were being shot. Billi is twelve years old; he rides horses and dreams of being a cowboy.
When a casting agent shows up looking for young extras to do some stunt work, Billi knows this is his big chance. His family, however, thinks otherwise.
