« L'amore è una forza della natura. »
Wyoming 1963. Sotto i cappelli due cowboy attendono davanti all'ufficio del rancher locale, Joe Aguirre, di salire sul Brokeback per la transumanza. Ennis Del Mar non ha famiglia, persa dietro una curva di una strada diritta, Jack Twist ne ha una da dimenticare in fondo alla campagna texana. Fuori dal mondo, in quel luogo sospeso che "rompe" con le convenzioni giù a valle, che "spezza" i tempi della cultura per seguire quelli di natura, i due giovani si avvicinano fino a toccarsi. Nella tenda, generosa alcova, il cameratismo si converte in passione, la realtà in epica amorosa.
