Storyline

Frank Shankwitz, an Arizona motorcycle cop with a troubled past, survives a near-fatal accident during a high-speed pursuit. As part of Frank's rehabilitation, police chief Sgt. Eddie Newman asks him to spend time with a terminally ill little boy, Michael, whose dying wish is to be a Highway Patrol motorcycle officer. To Michael, Frank is his hero, and an unlikely friendship is born. The boy inspires Frank to follow a new path, which leads to the creation of the Make-A-Wish foundation. Written by Theo Davies

Trivia

Frank Shankwicz was a consultant on this movie about himself, and convinced local Prescott AZ biz owners to donate location shots free of charge. Az has no film credit system so they were on a limited budget and Frank wanted it shot in his home town. See more »
