Ringo and Frank, both inseparable and efficient Texan gunslingers, save Jane, the daughter of a saloon owner, and both fall in love with the pretty young woman. When Jane chooses Ringo, the cowboys part ways. Ringo becomes the sheriff of the town after the wedding. Years later, reconciled with his mother and meanwhile become a father, he goes blind in an argument with former southern soldiers who are now plundering the area. Frank, the leader of the group, brings him back to town and takes over his position as sheriff. Standing in the service of the banker Daniels, Frank begins to work against Ringo, whose mother property contains a gold deposit.

When Ringo regains his sense of sight, he can take revenge on the bandits and shoot Frank in a final duel.
criticism
The lexicon of international films writes: “Simple-minded spaghetti westerns with occasional additions of humor that distract from the brutalities and sentimentalities.” “A mediocre film with a few well-lit scenes,” says Christian Keßler , who also talks about the facial play of the less gifted Hargitay . The Protestant film observer doesn't think much of the film: “Sentimental spaghetti westerns, who mainly fill their plot with pointless, extended shootings. Uninteresting and stupid. "
