This follow-on to "The Man from Snowy River" occurs five years later and finds Jim (Tom Burlinson) returning home to his cabin in Australia with a herd of wild horses. He hopes to sell them to provide a stake for the future and win Jessica's (Sigrid Thornton) hand. But, it's not going to be easy. Standard cliches, but not a bad follow-up movie.
