This week we’d like to highlight Cowboys and Engines from director Bryn Pryor. This short film takes place in 1876 in a world of mechanical marvels and fantastic contraptions- that’s right folks, it’s a steam punk film. We had the privilege of attending a table read for this film last week and are very exited to see this come to fruition.

Cowboys & Engines is an ambitious steampunk adventure that follows Cade Ballard (Jeff Cannata), the war-weary former ambassador from the nation of Texas as he meets Guinivere Wheeler (Libby Letlow), a woman who proves to be as dangerous as she is charming. When they encounter Professor Nicholas Timéon (Walter Koenig), and learn that his temporal engine, a machine with incredible destructive power, has been stolen by would-be conqueror Dr. Clay, Cade and Guinivere set off to save San Francisco from total destruction.
