WHAT’S IT ABOUT?

When Guatemalan teenager John (Ruiz) falls through ice while playing with his friends on a frozen lake, he remains underwater for fifteen minutes before first responders are able to rescue him. While John remains comatose, his adoptive parents Joyce (Metz) and Brian (Lucas) keep their spirits high as they hope for their son’s recovery…

IN ONE SENTENCE, WHY SHOULD YOU BE EXCITED?

Inspired by a real incident of a young boy fighting the almost-impossible odds to recover from a life-threatening incident, Breakthrough is a faith-based tale of inspiration and hope.
