Orphan is a horse -- a two week-old colt and the only survivor of a horrific crash on I-40 just west of Amarillo. Local veterinarian Jim Bob Masterson is asked by Texas State Troopers to care for "the orphan" a few days until ownership can be resolved. No one claims the horse. Meanwhile Jim Bob's 27-year-old daughter Elizabeth, an opera singer struggling with cancer, falls in love with the cold. As Liz battles for survival, the brightest spot in her life is the cute little colt whom she cares for and names "Orphan." |
