Synopsis

Based on Jack Weyland's novel 'Charly', the movie follows the relationship that develops between Sam Roberts (Jeremy Elliott) and Charly (Heather Beers). Sam believes he has all the answers: the purpose of life, the meaning of love and the plan for a perfect future. That is until Charly walks into his life. Charly and Sam are thrown together by circumstance and repelled by differences. She's spontaneous and cynical. He's scheduled and idealistic. She's open and mischievous. He's guarded and practical. Differences lead to interest, however, as Charly finds depth in Sam's idealism and Sam seeks the vibrancy of Charly's joie de vivre. But all is not smooth in the Rockies as their relationship accelerates - cultural differences, family issues, former loves, and life-altering challenges threaten to shake things up...
