br. La prigione di Yuma è un girone infernale, in particolare se hai la pelle scura. Per la legge, l'apache chiricahua Raymond San Carlos e l'ex soldato nero Harold Jackson sono assassini, condannati a marcire in carcere, a meno che qualcuno non gli tagli anzitempo la gola. Ma anche nel peggior posto sulla faccia della Terra si presenta a volte un barlume di speranza. Cinque criminali sanguinari sono evasi da Yuma: se Harold e Raymond riusciranno a consegnarli allo sceriffo, i due, prima nemici poi complici per necessità, potrebbero conquistare uno straccio di redenzione.
