Natalie's Rose and Second Chances Double Feature

Two movies: Natalie's Rose and Second Chances

Natalie's Rose:

Fifteen-year-old Natalie Canton's world is turned upside down when her mother loses her battle with cancer on Valentines Day. A fragile white rose becomes Natalie's only tangible link between the mother she lost and the hope she desperately needs to find. Natalie's father sends her to Nevada for Christmas to visit her aunt's ranch. Shortly after her arrival, Natalie's rose slips out of her coat pocket, undetected, and falls into the riding corral. The next day, a pure white horse, presumably a stray, stands where the rose fell. With each passing day as she rides and cares for Rose, Natalie learns to accept death as a season of life. Natalie's Rose is a simple, metaphorical story of comfort and assurance for all of us who struggle with death. Love never dies.

Second Chances:

An inspiring story of understanding, giving and love, in the spirit of Black Beauty. A car accident leaves 10 year-old Sunny Mathews unable to walk without crutches. In addition, she becomes emotionally withdrawn, reluctant to communicate with anyone around her. When she moves with her mother next door to a horse ranch run by former rodeo star Ben Taylor, Sunny develops a fondness for Ben and a mean crippled horse named Ginger, and she begins to make progress on the road to recovery.
