SYNOPSIS:
Dreamer:
Inspired by a True Story tells the story of a father who,
for the love of his daughter, sacrifices almost everything
to save the life of an injured racehorse and bring the promising
filly back to her former glory.
Ben
Crane was once a great horseman, whose gifts as a trainer
are now being wasted on making other men's fortunes. Sonador-called
Sonya-was a great horse whose promising future on the racetrack
is suddenly cut short by a career-ending broken leg. Considered
as good as dead to her owner, who also happens to be Ben's
boss, Sonya is given to Ben as severance pay, along with his
walking papers. Now, it will take the unwavering faith and
determination of Ben's young daughter, Cale, to bring these
two damaged souls together in a quest for a seemingly impossible
goal: to win the Breeders' Cup Classic.
However, the true
miracle might be that, in helping this injured horse, what
they are actually healing is their own family.
