It tells the story of an extraordinary ‘cowboy’ who finds his way into a small town. This town is filled with all the typical ‘cowboy’ town characters such as crooks, gamblers, drunkards and wild women.<\/p>\n
And of course, that cowboy is El Shatta Wale who is seen all dressed up in a traditional cowboy-inspired costume. He compliments his looks with a cowboy action gun which perfectly suits the concept.<\/p>\n
