Lassie is a family-based British/Irish/French 2005 film directed by Charles Sturridge. When a family hits financial crisis, they have no choice but to sell Lassie, and allow her to escape to the outside world of cold and hurt. Hundreds of miles away from her supposed "loving" family, Lassie sets out in a thrilling adventure to reclaim what is hers — her family.
