Synopsis

The Hi-Lo Country is a 1998 American Western film directed by Stephen Frears. The film is based on the novel of the same name by Max Evans.

Despite the risks, Big Boy and Mona begin a passionate affair, which leads to tension and conflict between the friends.

As the story unfolds, the characters are forced to confront their own desires, loyalties, and the harsh realities of life in the Hi-Lo Country. The film explores themes of friendship, betrayal, and the struggle for independence in a changing world.
