This film is a rare treasure. It is authentic. Godfrey's pure joy and innocence is a treat to witness. Benjamin's vision becomes a reality. The journey the two take together touches so many people. We really are all connected. One person's dream can carry so many …to all of us in the audience watching the movie. The music is outstanding and the emotion captured on film literally had me laughing with tears of joy. What a feeling. To ride the wave of these two, Benjamin and Godrey, and what they created together. Yes! I highly recommend seeing this film and sharing it with others. It might just renew your thoughts of what is possible and put it all on the line for yourself.
