Movie Stills:

Rebecca (Laurie Warnecke), Bags (Kenny McKinney), Kari (Julie Hudson), and Will (Damon Boggess) tell stories around the campfire on Kari's first night at the farm.

Kari (Julie Hudson) discovers that her horse is missing a shoe. This horse, David, belongs to Lindsay Koffler of Maplecrest Farm where the film was shot. Koffler rode as a double for Hudson in the film.

Actresses Laurie Warnecke (left) and Julie Hudson play half-sisters who know nothing about their true relationship. This was a first feature film role for both women.

Rebecca's careless actions cause division in the family. From left, the cast is Damon Boggess (Will), Melissa Kelley (Marilyn), Julie Hudson (Kari), Joe Gatton (Mike, kneeling), Kenny McKinney (Bags), and Laurie Warnecke (Rebecca).

Bags (Kenny McKinney) comforts Rebecca (Laurie Warnecke) with a few words of wisdom.
