Synopsis:
Set against the gritty backdrop of the modern American frontier, Americana follows the intersecting lives of a desperate waitress (Sydney Sweeney), a washed-up rodeo cowboy (Paul Walter Hauser), and a violent enforcer (Eric Dane) as they become entangled in a deadly plot surrounding a stolen Lakota ghost shirt, an artefact of immense cultural and symbolic value.
The ghost shirt becomes a lightning rod for justice, identity, and greed as violence increases and loyalty blurs, drawing all parties into a web of resistance, corruption, and reckoning.
