Malone

A former CIA assassin named Richard Malone is driving aimlessly through the American Northwest, seeking solace and distance from his violent past. His car breaks down in a remote valley, where he is forced to stop for repairs. There, he encounters the town’s mechanic, Paul Barlow, and his daughter, Jo. The town appears ordinary at first, but Malone soon senses an underlying tension and becomes aware that the local residents are under the oppressive thumb of Charles Delaney, a wealthy landowner who is using intimidation to drive people off their land. Delaney's ambitions include consolidating power in the region for his own hidden agenda.

Intrigued and morally compelled to act, Malone ends up defending the Barlows and other townspeople against Delaney's thugs. His involvement disrupts Delaney's plans, leading to escalating confrontations. Malone's presence triggers a cascade of violence and rebellion in the community as he takes on the role of an unexpected protector. Amid the rising tension and skirmishes, Malone aches to preserve his anonymity and avoid entanglement, yet he finds himself pulled deeper into the battle between good and evil in this seemingly quiet town. As events unfold, it becomes clear that Malone’s fight against Delaney is also a fight against the darker aspects of his own nature.
