Undaunted, the head-strong Sonora, even at such a tender age takes it upon herself to set the course of her own life. In 1932, the Great Depression is on, but times are even more trying for teenager Sonora Webster (Gabrielle Anwar), who after losing her parents is taken in by her aunt, only to be told that because of financial difficulties besetting her own family, Sonora must be given over to the state. There's a very definite lesson to be learned from this story a lesson of which many living in the world today would be well advised to take note.

It has something to do with a little thing called `pride,' and everything to do with the courage and tenacity it takes for someone to at least try to stand up when even the very hand of Fate seems bent on keeping them down. It's a film that should be required viewing for anyone who has ever cried out that the world owes them a living, because the message of `Wild Hearts Can't Be Broken,' directed by Steve Miner, is that `Life' isn't fair, but when the worst happens you have to pick yourself up by the bootstraps and get on with it nobody's going to do it for you. It's the story of the kind of challenges life can throw at anyone at random, and then follow up with yet another curve that seemingly takes it beyond the limits of human endurance.

Based on a true story, this film is not only entertaining, but as inspirational as they come a paean to the indomitability of the human spirit in the face of the kind of adversity that would make most of us simply roll over and quit.
