Moondance Alexander (2007)

In the heart of summer's languor, we meet Moondance Alexander, a vibrant teenager brimming with spirit, sharing her peculiar existence with an equally unconventional mother. Her summer, seemingly doomed to the doldrums, takes an unexpected turn when she stumbles upon Checkers, a wayward pinto pony who has leapt free from his enclosure. After reuniting the lost horse with his enigmatic and somewhat gruff owner, Dante Longpre, Moondance becomes consumed by a belief that Checkers is a latent jumping champion. Fuelled by this conviction, she persuades the reluctant Dante to coach her and Checkers for the prestigious Bow Valley Classic, undeterred by the scoffs and sneers of her contemporaries. As Moondance embarks on this quest, she uncovers the true power of perseverance, loyalty, and the strength found in embracing one's unique identity. The narrative unfurls to reveal that even against the odds, these virtues just might secure a place for you in the coveted winner's circle.
