Alex Cox: My "last movie" is a Western version of Nicolai Gogol's "Dead Souls". This is a great book, full of irony, mystery and meaning. I plan to shoot in two locations – Almería, Spain, and Tucson, Arizona. Our story begins in a nameless place in the Arizona Territory, in 1890. These opening scenes I’ll shoot at the Rancho Leone, the location Carlo Simi built for Sergio Leon...
A blind woman develops an unexpected friendship with an ex-con, not realising that he's stuck on home detention - a sitting duck with a target on his back. As their bond deepens, she finds herself entangled in his past, and hiding in plain sight of a sadistic crime lord.
