A FAMILY IN FOR THE RIDE OF THEIR LIVES!
EMMY® NOMINEE STEPHEN COLLINS STARS IN
‘EVERY SECOND COUNTS,’
A HALLMARK CHANNEL ORIGINAL MOVIE
PREMIERING JULY 12
Feel like a winner. Think like a winner. Words to live by for a former rodeo champion and his daughter, who suddenly finds herself with more riding on her skills than she anticipated in “Every Second Counts,” a Hallmark Channel Original Movie premiering Saturday, July 12 (9/8c). Emmy® nominee Stephen Collins (7th Heaven”), award-winning actress Barbara Williams (“Quarterlife”) and newcomer Magda Apanowicz (“Kyle XY”) tell the story of one family’s heartbreak and triumph in an inspired tale about dreams, responsibilities and learning to live without regrets.
Joe Preston (Collins) is as proud as any father can be watching his daughter, Brooke (Apanowicz), compete in the heart-pounding rodeo sport of penning. Though only 17 years old, Brooke shows all the signs of becoming a world-class champion, just like her father before an injury forced him to retire. But where Joe envisions a future of competition and prize winnings for his daughter – and is prepared to wager his family’s livelihood on it – Brooke has dreams of earning a college scholarship and studying to become a veterinarian, an endeavor that is supported by her mother, Helen (Williams).
As Joe pins the family’s future on Brooke’s riding skills, things spiral out of control for him when he loses his job as bills pile up. Realizing the desperate situation her family is in, Brooke is forced to make the decision that it’s up to her and her injured horse, Ginger, to save the family, regardless of the effect it has on her dreams. With more on the line than either father or daughter ever imagined, the only way to look is forward.
“Every Second Counts” is produced by Chesler/Perlmutter Productions, Inc. Lewis Chesler, David Perlmutter and Paulina Mielich are the executive producers and Rob Vaughn is the producer. John Bradshaw is directing from a script by Arthur Martin.
