Synopsis

First Cow

In the 1820s, a taciturn loner and skilled cook travels west to Oregon Territory, where he meets a Chinese immigrant also seeking his fortune. Soon the two team up on a dangerous scheme to steal milk from the wealthy landowner’s prized Jersey cow – the first, and only, in the territory.

Where the Wind Blows

Chase, a rugged cowboy and solitary drifter who closed off his heart long ago—until the day he impulsively does a kindness for a beautiful young woman, and everything changes over the course of three days.
