Film Synopsis
Film Synopsis: His tour bus is broken, he bought his house for a thousand bucks, and the small farming town of Dunn Center, North Dakota (population: 120 and shrinking) which he lives is disappearing faster with each passing year. Chris Sand is the face of the dying American West. Except for one thing: He raps. Chris “Sandman” Sand looks like Woody Guthrie but sings like LL Cool J. Roll Out, Cowboy follows the 39-year-old country/hip-hop musician as he tours the American West during the 2008 Presidential election. The result? A music fusion of—country/hip hop/folk/rap or whatever you call it, it’s unique, fresh, sexy, and distinctly western. Small town America isn’t as conservative as we think. Roll Out, Cowboy marks Elizabeth Lawrence’s feature film directional debut. Her previous roles include production manager and line producer. She’s assisted producers and directors on films such as The Exorcism of Emily Rose, Underworld Evolution and The Last Kiss.. 2010, 75 min, Blu-Ray.
