From producers of Alone Yet Not Alone, comes a heartfelt movie about legendary small town baseball coach, Joe Finn (Burgess Jenkins, Remember the Titans, Nashville, The Shunning), who after taking his shot as a scout for the big leagues returns home to discover the damage he's done by leaving his family behind. The all-star cast includes Gregory Alan Williams (In the Line of Fire, The Preacher's Kid), R. Keith Harris (Big Fish), and Mark Joy (The Ultimate Gift). The film also includes a musical score by Grammy winner, Michael Omartian. This movie will be in stores beginning September 16, 2014.

About Hero:
A father’s broken relationship with his family fills him with determination to win back the son he left behind. Reaching out through the game they both love, he deliberately forms a baseball team designed to reconnect both fathers and sons, transforming their town in the process. The story shows how one good man can lead change in his community for the common good.

My thoughts:
I found this film to be a great example of how meaningful it is to have fathers involved in a child's life and how influential sports can be to strengthen that connection. We have always had our children participate in sports both individually and in a team so they can not only learn to push themselves but also to learn how to work together as a team. I really do not agree with the idea of children having to play without the opportunity to learn about winning and losing. It is just as important to have pride as a winner as it is to learn how to lose gracefully. My son and husband enjoyed the movie as much as I did. If you enjoy great family movies about not giving up, you might want to check this movie out.
