The Impossible Dream
This film follows the stories of four American citizens from around the nation, as they overcome their unique challenges, acting out of the responsibility that they can - and must - follow the American Dream to build a future for coming generations. From ranchers to nurses, they show that the hope and beliefs that built this nation are still alive today. In this land of opportunity, through hard work and God's help, nothing is impossible.
