A man rides a horse across the desert that separates him from Bitter Creek. He comes to visit Sheriff Jake. Twenty-five years earlier, both the sheriff and Silva, the rancher who rides out to meet him, worked together as hired gunmen. Silva visits him with the excuse of reuniting with his friend from his youth, and they do indeed celebrate their meeting, but the next morning Sheriff Jake tells him that the reason for his trip is not to go down the memory lane of their old friendship…

The film was an official selection of the 2023 Cannes Film Festival, Telluride Film Festival, Toronto Film Festival and New York Film Festival.

From Sony Pictures Classics, Strange Way of Life will be released in theaters on October 6.
