Mikey Carmello loves football. Appointed manager for a high school
team, Mikey has but just one dream in life-to score a touchdown for
his beloved Wolves. Unfortunately, everyone thinks it is too risky
for Mikey to play football-he has Down syndrome. But as football
season ends, Mikey has no idea that someone is about to give him a
break from the rain. Mikey and the high school football coach share
an uncommon relationship. With Mikey's special wish in mind, the
coach begins to develop a plan to form an organized football league
so that Mikey can safely score the touchdown he has always wanted
to achieve. But when Mikey's father is suddenly killed in a car
accident, the coach willingly steps into a father role and begins
teaching Mikey how everything is possible in life-if he just
believes. As the coach and Mikey step into the future together,
both are forever changed by their inspirational journey through
adversity, societal labeling, and a victory like no other. "A Break
in the Rain" is a story about how a coach chooses to be a champion
for a little boy with a simple wish and lifts himself up in the
process.
