Mending Fences

When big-city TV journalist Kelly Faraday (Laura Leighton) gets fired, she moves back to her Nevada hometown, where a severe drought may force her aging mother, Ruth (Angie Dickinson), to sell the family farm to a casino developer. As Kelly and Ruth sort out old differences, the erstwhile reporter and her ex-beau Walt (David Lee Smith) begin to suspect the casino of manipulating the town's water supply. Set against the backdrop of a drought-ravaged Nevada landscape, "Mending Fences" is a drama that explores themes of family, loyalty, and community in the face of adversity.
