What is the movie all about?

The trailer for Broke was released on April 10, 2025, and is available on the official Sony Pictures Entertainment YouTube channel. The clip begins with a slow-motion shot of True Brandywine bareback bronc riding a bucking horse. True narrates how he feels about the activity during the shot, as he says,

"Nothing and nobody makes me feel as alive as I do when I'm on the back of that horse for 8 seconds."

The scene changes to a snowy place where a confused and older True Brandywine is seen in a state of panic. True starts recollecting his past moments with his parents. In the past, True's father wished for him to join the Marines, but his passion was always bronc riding. A scene is shown in which he falls off while riding and hits his head on the ground, causing him brain trauma and memory problems.

True's obsession keeps driving him back to bronc riding, but he is unsure where he will go in life, with the brain injury taking its toll. The trailer fades out with an introduction to the cast and also shows an old, disoriented True Brandywine sitting alone in a cabin with a rifle.
