Description

In this inspiring tale based on true events, 17-year-old Ali Jahani is a newcomer to a small California town, where he stands out as different in an unwelcoming community. Living with his embittered uncle, the boy faces a mountain of adversity everywhere he turns. Rejected by everyone but determined to fit in, he joins the school’s floundering wrestling team. With a chance to change how others see him, Ali must step up and learn to be a hero.

    I can't wait to watch this again! Very fun movie to watch. I was happy to see a quality film that was not vulgar in any way. I've seen most of the films this company has produced and each one has a great story, with great acting, while keeping their integrity.

  • Love it

    Amazing movie and story! It's like the "RUDY" of the 2000's :^)...I grew up in Petaluma and wrestled for Casa Grande high school so it touched home a bit. I will watch again and I highly recommend you purchase and watch...
