Mattie
Genre: Western/Drama/Family
Logline: Love proves to be as opportunistic as the West ...
only to find that it, too, has many areas left undiscovered.
Synopsis: Mattie Springer is a head-strong young woman
who has had to grow up quickly in a perilous time of the old
west. Moving to Arizona from Missouri to escape the coming
War Between the States, she and her family find conditions
just as volatile as the life they tried to leave behind. A
widower, Jess tries his best to raise four children in the
same way his late wife would have wanted. The eldest of the
children, Mattie takes over the household chores and finally
begins to see her father recover from his loss, in spite of the
surrounding violence from neighboring Native American
tribes and lawless criminals.
As time passes, Mattie falls in love and marries a reckless
man, Zebediah, who can’t resist the temptation to roam the
west. As her husband satisfies his wanderlust, Mattie finds
herself sharing a home with her husband’s brother, Jacob,
who is forced to conceal his own love for Mattie amid the
tumultuous violence of the Arizona Territory. Jacob tends the
ranch that he and Zeb worked together until Mattie came into
their lives.
Meanwhile, the lawlessness of the old west takes a toll on
Mattie’s family, leaving her younger brother and sister
orphaned and in the care of local Chiricahua Apaches. This
kindness forges an unexpected bond between the tribe and
the Springer family. After finally reuniting with what is left of
her family, justice is served on the marauding band of
Commancheros who killed her father and baby sister.
Budget: $3,914,125.00
