Jessica's "modern" characteristics bring out a bad relationship with her father. One of the family's expensive colts breaks loose and joins the wild herd of horses called the brumbees.
Jim is blamed and must prove to his boss that he is worthy of his daughter.
The famous scene when Jim takes matters into his own hands, returning to the wild and untamed Snowy River where the lost colt has joined the wild horses.
