Bernicia works in the ticket kiosk of a national park, doing odd jobs and loyally contributing to her family. One day she finds a lost horse and her life becomes profoundly connected to the animal. She experiences a great transformation – slowly channeling the persona of a cowboy. Her life takes on a new meaning, and it’s the first time she has felt her individuality. This disturbs her family and puzzles those around her, but she develops the strength to follow her own path - living life on her own terms for the first time. And her life will never be the same. An uplifting story about accepting who you are, El Vaquero is a touching reminder to embrace the simple things in life and follow your happiness.
