When a high-school football star is suddenly stricken with irreversible total blindness, he must decide whether to accept his new reality or attempt a return to the game he still loves.

In the prime of his youth, up-and-coming football star Travis Freeman lost his sight from a sinus infection caused by a rare disease. Overnight he became irreversibly blind and had to cope with new trials and changes. With the love and support of his family and closest friends, he learned to push himself to extraordinary heights. Relying on his other senses and his instincts, he did the unthinkable. Displaying unconditional determination he proved nothing could dampen the spirit of a champion.—Anonymous

A talented young football player makes an unlikely comeback after losing his sight in this inspirational sports drama based on the story of Travis Freeman. As young boys, Travis and his best friend Jerry Baker bonded over their love of football. Years later, as teenagers at a Kentucky high school, Travis and Jerry have become their team's star players. Just when it looks like nothing can stop him, Travis suddenly falls ill with a virus that destroys his optic nerve overnight. But while Travis might be blind, he certainly isn't alone, and with help from his parents, his unbending physical therapist, his coach, and Jerry, the talented young athlete is soon back on the gridiron and preparing to compete in the state playoffs. If Travis can just remain focused on the game rather than getting distracted by temptation, perhaps he will prove to himself and those who inspire him that it pays to hold onto your dreams even in the face of certain defeat.
