About the film
You know that dream of flying?
Everyone desires to be free — free to learn, dream, and explore their gifts and talents. But for the millions of people impacted by global poverty, that freedom is nothing more than an idea.
Narrated by Pencils of Promise CEO Kailee Scales and featuring Adam Braun, Lil Jon, and Meadow Walker, this film chronicles the journey of the restoration of dreams.
