Sean Bean as "Cowboy"

The Big Empty (2003)


The Big Empty tells the story of John Person, a budding actor who is faced with a stalled career and a mountain of debts.  A nosey eccentric neighbour offers to eliminate his financial woes, if he will simply deliver a plain blue suitcase to a mysterious gentleman.  The gentleman will be waiting in the isolated desert town of Baker, California. In desperation he accepts.
There, in the middle of nowhere, at a seedy motel in the shadow of The World's Largest Thermometer, he'll simply deliver the locked suitcase to a trucker called Cowboy (Sean Bean) and be paid twenty-seven thousand dollars in cold, hard cash. Seems like easy money. But then John is given a loaded gun and told he must defend the blue suitcase with his life
Echo Lake is producing the film with Aura Entertainment, Rainstorm Entertainment, and North by Northwest Productions.
