This story was inspired by a true story, Ben Crane (Kurt Russell) and Cale Crane (Dakota Fanning), father and daughter who lack of much needed bond. Ben is a horse trainer who takes his work very seriously, neglects his own aspiring daughter while he pours his heart into the care of the horses that he train. So one day, Cale ask her father to take her along to work. While with her father, a horse named Sonador falls during a race, injuring herself badly enough. Cale having fallen in love at first sight of Sonador before the accident, begins to sneak out to the barn at night to see her, and give her ice cream. She was hoping that Sonador will get well soon and back on the track. After that, she heard a conversation between Ben and her mother about the burden they have of taking care Sonador. Emotionally, Cale sets out to run away and saddles up Sonador, and her father was in the rescue mission to save Cale that already terrified. This incident begins to cement the newly-forming bond between father and daughter, and also begins to heal the wounds of the whole family that had grow over the years. Sonador goes from being a negative focal point to the hero of the movie.
