PROJECT SPECS
Haftu Knight, a troubled pro-marathoner, is about to take on his most daunting challenge yet, a 2:06 marathon at one of the biggest stages in the world, the Chicago marathon. Along the way, he comes face to face with his biggest fear and the memory that has been holding him back since his childhood in the hills of Ethiopia. Is greatness truly defined by your actions, or is fate something that cannot be changed?
