Painted Desert - TUFF Theatrical Edition

Painted Desert - TUFF Theatrical Edition (1994) is a western, drama directed by Masato Harada rated 6.3/10.

In the middle of the desert, a solipsistic Japanese-American woman, along with her elderly and paralysed friend Barbara, runs the Desert Rose Cafe. Things liven up with the arrival of a mafia henchman (whose boss is hiding out at a nearby ranch), a battered Japanse man (who turns out to be a terrific chef, but who also triggers Barbara's memories of internment during WWII), and an attack on the mob boss' camp.
