The story
Johnny is a young gunslinger who earns a living killing soldiers, driven by revenge for his father’s death. His father, a retired general, was accused of treason when Johnny was a child. Orphaned, Johnny was taken in and raised as a son by Klaus, a farmer who has since become sheriff of Campanas. Now Klaus must face a painful conflict: he is compelled to arrest the stepson he raised, with the assistance of Garringo, a lieutenant colonel sent by the army specifically to capture Johnny.
Full plot (contains spoilers)

He will be forced to arrest his own stepson with the help of Garringo (Antonio de Teffé), a lieutenant colonel in the army sent for the sole purpose of arresting Johnny.
