Bullet catcher: a legendary band of outlaws who can deflect bullets with their hands

In the small town of Sand, populated by gunslingers and surrounded by endless desert, Imma washes dishes and grieves for a life she never had. She and her brother, Nikko, dreamed of escaping to become bullet catchers. But they disappeared years ago, Nikko with them. And leaving is impossible when walking into the desert means certain death.

When she sees a stranger catch a man's bullet and turn it back on him, Imma knows it can only mean one thing: the beullet catchers live on, and this is her way out.

Determined to follow him, Imma starts a journey that will take her to her pyhsical extremes and force her to question who she really is: bullet catcher or gunslinger; hero or monster.
