"Y'know, there's just something about a cowgirl. Something you can't quite put your finger on. Cowgirls, well, they ain't like you and me."

Meet Sheilah Rogers, twenty-something hellraisin' larger-than-life bronc rider. Meet Vernelle, her visionary Mom; Flo, the dried-up piece of rawhide who raised Sheilah; and Bob, the aging Marlboro man. This world premiere features mothers, daughters, ghosts, bronc riding, heartache, and unconditional love
-- all colliding in the eight seconds of one cowgirl's fateful ride.
