Movie Synopsis3AM Films and Misfits of Film present Texoma.
Rancher Clint Forest’s girlfriend Kat has dumped him again. She’s fed up with his easy going nature and inattentiveness. Clint’s mind is elsewhere. At his ex-wife’s insistence, he’s looking into the suspicious death of an old friend. Clint’s problems are compounded by rival rancher Nick Grandfield who wants Clint’s land. The windy plains of Texoma are filled with clues for one death and are ready to be the place for murder. Texoma is currently in festivals. For the latest screening information follow us on Instagram @misfits_of_film. The Producers of Texoma thank the Altus, Oklahoma Chamber of Commerce, The Enchanted Door located in Altus and The Hayloft, located in Lawton, Oklahoma for their assistance in the production of this movie.

Director Matt Jenkins loves a good story and “Texoma” is no exception. - I See You Film Awards
The Monkey Bread Tree Film Awards Festival Director says:
Texoma’s greatest element is its authenticity. The film is quite well shot, and consistent with its technical skill for its measly $3,000 budget. The cast, which gather a strong set of characters, provide a taste of this particular Texan way of life, enriched with the ideas of community, generational dynamics, and the importance of locality to the film’s own ideals of land. There is also a very strong ideal surrounding the propriety of smaller American town’s, and the implications these might have across the way one’s lifestyle might change over the course of a lifetime.
There is a sense here of the old western saga narrative, though in scope this isn’t by any means a John Ford film, it does hold some water in this comparison: the film is character driven, and its attention to the turmoil faced by its characters are handled in the same manner, grounded often in the clash of internal and social expectations of individuals placed under conflict.
