Josephine (Suzy Amis) arrives in the West to escape the prejudices of the East (she had an illegitimate baby), and finds more problems in her new life. To escape the stigma of being a woman, Josephine disguises herself as a male and becomes "Little Jo." As such, she experiences life on the frontier as a male, which poses fewer problems.
