Keith (Toby Keith) is a fading country music star who has hit a rough patch in his life. His label has dropped him, his band has deserted him, and his marriage has fallen apart. He decides to return to his hometown in Tennessee to attend the funeral of his younger brother, who died in a car accident.
Upon his return, Keith has an emotional reunion with his childhood sweetheart, Angela (Kelly Preston). He discovers that his brother had a daughter, Dixie (Lindsey Haun), whom he had never met before. Dixie's mother died when she was young, and she has been raised by her grandparents. Keith is shocked to discover that he has a 16-year-old daughter, and he tries to make amends for not being there for her all these years.
Dixie is initially hesitant to accept Keith as her father, but they eventually bond over their shared love of music. Keith convinces Dixie to perform with him at a benefit concert for the town's struggling economy. The concert is a huge success, and Keith's relationship with his daughter and Angela is mended.
The movie also features Willie Nelson as Keith's former bandmate, who helps him get his career back on track. Broken Bridges is a heartwarming story about family, forgiveness, and the power of music.
