A young woman pins her hopes and dreams on a maverick horse in this
drama based on the classic novel by
Mary O'Hara.
Katy (
Alison Lohman) is the teenage daughter of a horse rancher (
Tim McGraw) who is grooming his son to take over the family business, while
Katy is sent to an exclusive private school where she feels like a misfit. One day, while out riding,
Katy finds a wild horse, a beautiful black mustang, and she feels an emotional connection with the animal. While her father is convinced having a mustang around his herd will be bad for both his thoroughbred ponies and the wild horse,
Katy is certain she can break the strong-willed steed and make him a champion, and she even gives the horse a name --
Flicka. As
Katy struggles to tame the headstrong
Flicka, she also tries to prove to her father that she knows horses as well as he does, and that she's every bit as capable of running the ranch as her brother. Also starring
Maria Bello and
Ryan Kwantan,
Flicka was previously adapted for the screen as
My Friend Flicka in 1943.
