After World War III, water becomes a precious commodity in the desert community of Meridian. So much so, in fact, that when a controlling mob, led by the evil Damnil (Anthony Zerbe), takes over the town's supply, the good people fight back by hiring Nomad (Patrick Swayze), a peacekeeping warrior. Nomad is the only person who can put an end to the greed in this modern interpretation of the Western classic Shane.
