Sixteen year old Alex Taylor dreams of flying. He also dreams of running for his high school's cross-country track team. Both dreams seem equally out of his reach, as Alex has been blind since the age of two.

If I Had Wings
2013 | Canada | Ages 13+ | 89 min
Alex, determined to run, practices with his father, who finds that he no longer can keep up with his son, a very gifted runner. He must find a running partner at the school fast enough to help Alex make the cross-country team.
This help comes from the unlikeliest of sources. Brad Coleman, schoolmate of Alex's, spends most of his time running from the law. Facing incarceration for repeat offenses, Alex's father makes a deal to keep Brad out of jail and back in school. He pairs the two boys together, and despite a rocky start because of their many differences, an unlikely friendship develops.
Join us on Tuesday Feb 17, 2015 at 7:00pm for this special event for the whole family.
