Aloft Wilmington at Coastline Center | Wilmington, NC

A gritty, funny, and uniquely American story of second chances, legacy, and outrunning your past. This captivating film follows 18-year-old sprinter King Combest as he attempts to break his father’s 25-year-old national record—and the cycle of drugs, jail, and poverty shaping his Kentucky family for generations. King's real race is for a college degree and a future beyond crime.
