ANGELIKA’S NOTE

COWBOYS, a modern day Western from director/writer Anna Kerrigan, is a tale of rescue, family betrayal and a father and son on the run. Variety raves, "[Steve] Zahn brings great warmth to one of his most surprising performances yet, as does the usually radiant, unexpectedly severe [Jillian] Bell... both comedic actors given a chance to defy expectations in a movie that fully embraces the spirit of reinvention." Zahn (JOY RIDE, CAPTAIN FANTASTIC) tries to liberate his young transgender son (Sasha Knight) from a harsh, unsympathetic mother (Bell, BRITTANY RUNS A MARATHON) by taking him to Canada.

SYNOPSIS

Steve Zahn stars as Troy, a troubled but well-intentioned father who has recently separated from his wife Sally (Jillian Bell). Aghast at Sally’s refusal to let their trans son Joe (Sasha Knight) live as his authentic self, Troy runs off with Joe into the Montana wilderness. Meanwhile police detective (Ann Dowd) pursues them, but her resolve about the case is tested the more she learns about Joe’s family.
