Synopsis:

Three teenagers looking for adventure find more than they expected in this coming-of-age drama. High school seniors Wade (Jason James Richter) and Lorna (Kate Hudson) have spent all their lives in the small logging town of Calamus Grove, a conservative place where change comes slowly. Jesse Howl (Douglas Spain), a teenager of Native American ancestry, has just moved to Calamus Grove, and soon finds he doesn't fit in this close-knit community. Wade and Lorna go out of their way to befriend Jesse, and soon find that they're also regarded as outcasts among their peers. Eager to get away from the narrow minds which are stifling them, the three friends grab a car and take off for a summer road trip that turns out to be full of lessons in life and love. Ricochet River was based on the novel by Robin Cody.

A coming of age story about three teenagers in search of their place in the world. Change comes slowly in the small logging community of Calamus Grove. Folk seem to like things just the way they are. So, when high school seniors Wade (Jason James Richter) and Lorna (Kate Hudson) befriend a mysterious newcomer, Jesse Howl (Douglas Spain), it causes quite a stir amongst the locals. Fearful of the outsider, the townspeople lash out at Jesse with prejudice and hate. Wades and Lornas friendship and loyalty are tested, and they quickly learn that age doesn't always bring wisdom.

Not a lot is happening in Calamus Grove, a backwoods logging town where high school sweethearts Wade and Lorna spend their days dreaming of escape. But when they meet a sensitive Native American teenager with a rebellious streak, everything changes.
