Dove Review

Here is a story of one man trying to make a difference. Reggie, a retired Pro football Athlete, goes to Portland to teach history and coach football. But the most important job he wants is to save his friend’s nephew from the bad influences of a drug dealer in this young man’s life so the family will not lose another child to the streets.

In today’s world we have to take an interest in our youth. There are so many bad influences in the world that draw our young people into temptations and it is important for all of us to do our part to help save them. This is a tale of one man’s personal conviction that to help even one child is better than sitting on the sidelines and ignoring the situation. It concentrates on faith and being positive, that it is a better way to help our children and save them from this corrupt world.

We award the Dove Seal for the ages of 12 and older to this wonderful film.
