Quantum Cowboys

International Feature Films Competition

2022 / 99’ / USA

"Quantum Cowboys" is a contemplative journey though form and content. On the one hand, an old fashioned western about two hapless drifters, Frank and Bruno, who team up with Linde, recover her land and trek across 1870s southern Arizona in order to find an elusive frontier musician. On the other hand a combination of Hugh Everett’s Many Worlds Theory, Erwin Schrödinger's Paradox of Quantum Superposition and Richard Feynman’s Posterior and Anterior Time Wave Theory. Or maybe it’s just a musing about art as the only way we truly understand our own memories. In any case, there are gun fights, horses, dance halls, cacti and saloons!
