1877, sudoeste do Texas. Milhares de cabeças de gado eram empurradas para o norte do estado, sem que haja controle algum. Os ladrões de gado perceberam isto e viram que era uma forma de roubar muitas cabeças com certa facilidade, matando quem entrasse no caminho deles. Um criador de gado, Clay Hardin (Errol Flynn), quase se tornou outra vítima e, apesar de ter sido baleado várias vezes, conseguiu ir para o México para se recuperar.

Agora Clay prepara a sua volta para se vingar, apesar do temor de Charlie Bell (John Litel), seu melhor amigo, pois os capangas de Stuart estão esperando-o para "terminar o serviço".

In 1937, after seeing a photo depicting the lynching of a black man in the south, Bronx-born high school teacher Abel Meeropol wrote a poem entitled "Strange Fruit" that begins with the words: "Southern trees bear a strange fruit / Blood on the leaves and blood at the root." He set the poem to music and a few years later convinced Billy holiday to record it in a legendary heartbreaking performance. Intertwining jazz genealogy, biography, performance footage, and the history of lynching, director Joel Katz fashions a fascinating discovery of the lost story behind a true American classic.
