Description: This spaghetti western finds a despotic mine owner (Eduardo Fajardo) the target for revenge by the idealistic patriot Eufemio (Tony Musante). He hires Bill Douglas (Franco Nero) to incite a revolution that will oust the government and the greedy miner.

Ennio Morricone provides the music for this violent and humorous film.~ Dan Pavlides, All Movie Guide
