The Colt

It's 1864, and the First Michigan Calvalry is stranded in a Virginia forest, choking with smolderin fires and smoke and childe by the distant cries of falling men. Among those stranded in this hell: the weary Sgt. Longacre (Steve Bacic), Covington (Darcy Belsher), an illustrator enlisted to capture the Civil War in unerring detail, and trooper Jim Rabb (Ryan Merriman), who counts his brother among the casulaties, yet still rides his beloved mare Jen with a true soldier's indomitable will to survive. One morning Jim discovers that Jen has given birth and by her side is a newborn colt, shaking and afraid, born to chaos, and clinging to his mother for life. (official distributor synopsis)
