Cowboy Smoke is a modern day action western that addresses a social issue that's on the tip of everyone's tongue, illegal immigration.
When we first meet Joe, a drug-store cowboy type, he's a convenient store clerk who loves his job for one reason, the free standing quick-draw video game there called Cowboy Smoke. After beating the game and subsequently being fired for playing it while on the clock, Joe packs his boots and follows his dreams down to south Texas to learn about real cowboying.
Joe's idea of the mythic cowboy is quickly shattered when he comes in contact with the real deal; The first job he is offered is killing illegal Mexican immigrants simply because they are crossing over private property. Ultimately, Joe and a mysterious fugitive take on a dying land baron and his human smuggling ring in an attempt to save a family of illegal immigrants. The showdown ends as the smoke clears to show who is left standing.
