In the tradition of Stand by Me and The Black Stallion comes this touching coming of age story of four adventurous young friends who, along with their trusted dog Nikki, set out on a quest to capture four prize stallions that have broken free from a wealthy stable. Though motivated by the reward money, the group will come to realize their friendship is a much more valuable commodity, as they face white water rapids, dangerous wild life and the challenges of being lost in the mountain terrain. But little do they know, they are not the only ones hunting the stallions. Calvin, an ex-con currently on work release, is also on the trail of the horses and will stop at nothing to acquire the animals before the kids do.
In the span of one afternoon, four friends have the experience of a lifetime, journeying further into the unfamiliar country than ever before, and realizing how much they need to lean on one another - because life is an adventure unto itself.
