Wild Roses
Synopsis
Shakespearean themes of family, love and betrayal are the roots of Wild Roses. Two families, the wealthy McGregors and the debt-ridden Henrys, clash over land, love and loyalty. Their stories tangle against the backdrop of boomtown Calgary, Alberta, where rich oil executives play at being cowboys and the surrounding ranchlands are in danger of being consumed by the new-West gold rush.
Patriarch David McGregor rules not only his family and his oil exploration company, but also Montrose, the sprawling ranchland estate that has been in his family for generations. Now David has his sights set on Rivercross, the small but stunning parcel of land left to the Henry’s by David’s father.
But the Henrys are determined to hold onto their homestead relying on their wit, passion and unwavering loyalty to the land and each other.
