In a small Texas town live former rangers, brave guardians of the borders and tranquility of the still very young United States, and their cowboy friends. Different, they are similar to each other in the ineradicable spirit of romance, forcing them, leaving a quiet life, to go to the north, where undeveloped lands await them - through cold and heat, rivers and deserts, raids of bandits and attacks of wild animals. Suffering, dying, but without giving up, they overcome this path.
