Logline: In the Wild West, a sharpshooter murders her abusive sheriff father and frees his Indigenous prisoner. The two become lovers and thieves and embark on an American odyssey.

Bio: Jesse Crall is a Los Angeles native with experience as a production assistant, copywriter, script reader and project manager. He received his undergraduate degree from UCLA's English Department where he developed a love of depressing post-war novels featuring alcoholic philanderers. At New York University, he received the Venable Herndon Award for Excellence in Screenwriting as well as the Young Screenwriter's Fellowship, particularly meaningful because it has "Young" in the title.

Most of his work is written with his collaborator, a Siamese cat who makes up for her lack of typing dexterity by pitching numerous ideas at a very high volume.
