“It's better to believe in the impossible than nothing”
Synopsis
High School hockey goalie, David Bastion, hopes to make the Varsity team after moving from Minnesota following his father's death. He answers an ad to walk a dog for Mia Schafer, a former Olympic trainer and fitness model, who suffered a stroke, in order to earn enough money to buy the sports enhancement supplements he saw on an infomercial. After having an allergic reaction, Ms. Shafer shows David that there is no supplement for hard work. In order to find their renewed purpose, they must step outside their safety zones.
