ACCEPTANCE BRIDGE
Heart of ROCKY - Cherubic innocence of GUMP -
by Steve Kayser
Charismatic HIGHLAND "HI-RISER" RISERT, regally handsome multi-millionaire, former NBA All- Star and successful entrepreneur has it all. A booming Hi-tech company, beautiful family, blessed life. But not for long.
The company goes belly up and Highland is involved in a horrific accident that kills his family. He survives but is disfigured and crippled for life.
An accident?
Maybe... Maybe not.
Highland vows to prove it wasn't. But how? He has no money, no job, is confined to a wheelchair, and worse, no one believes him. Destitute, Highland takes a job at a poor rural school. There he meets a fourteen year old deaf kid, HOMER - A boy that awakens gentle stirrings of the soul that may breathe hope into his life again.
Homer's only goal in life is to make the basketball team. Highland takes Homer under his wing and an Odyssey of unexpected emotion, discovery and drama unfolds.
Highland searches for the answers to his nightmare while being drawn into Homer's battle to capture a dream. A heart-rending journey plays out against the backdrop of acceptance, redemption and spiritual rebirth.
ACCEPTANCE BRIDGE is a story about overcoming insurmountable odds, emotional twists, humorous turns and a spiritually uplifting climax. And... a story where a Homer steals your heart.
ACCEPTANCE BRIDGE - the heart of ROCKY. The cherubic innocence of FOREST GUMP.
