A young female delinquent discovers a passion for bull riding after she is forced to work for an aging bullfighter in this new slice-of-life drama, starring newcomer Amber Havard and acclaimed character actor Rob Morgan (Just Mercy, Mudbound, Stranger Things).

"Bull" is a new indie Texas-set drama about the relationship that forms between a rebellious 14-year-old girl and an African-American rodeo bullfighter who becomes her unlikely mentor.

Documentary filmmaker Annie Silverstein (March Point) directs and co-writes the film, which also co-stars Yolonda Ross, from the Showtime series "The Chi."

After premiering to strong reviews at last year's Cannes Film Festival, "Bull" will be released in theaters and on VOD March 20th. Watch the official trailer, above.

synopsis:
The film centers around 14-year-old Kris (Amber Havard), who, after trashing her neighbor's house in a fit of youthful defiance, seems destined to follow in her mother's footsteps to the state penitentiary. To make amends, she is forced to help Abe Turner (Rob Morgan), an ex-bull rider scraping by on the Texas rodeo circuit, with errands at home and at his work. While traveling with Abe, she discovers a passion for bull riding. Yet, as Kris sets out to learn the dangerous sport, bad influences lure her back into delinquent ways. Meanwhile, Abe struggles with the aches and pains of growing older and aging out of the only life he has ever known. Together, Kris and Abe forge an unexpected connection, helping each other see new possibilities and hope for the future before it's too late.
