Summary

"Cowboys" premiered earlier this year at NewFest 2020 and tells the story of a father and his transgender son living in the Montana wilderness after his wife refused to accept their son. The film stars Steve Zahn, Jillian Bell, Sasha Knight and Ann Dowd and has been circulating under the radar. But make no mistake, this is one of the best hidden gems you are likely to see all year. Writer and director Anna Kerrigan was kind enough to spend a few minutes talking to us about the film and we hope you'll give it a listen and seek this movie out. It is now currently available on VOD and Virtual Cinemas. Enjoy! Check out more on NextBestPicture.com Please subscribe on...
