From the time 21 year-old Terry Fox embarked from St. John's,Newfoundland, in the early hours of April 12, 1980, he never lost sight of his goal - to run 26 miles a day, everyday, across Canada. Based on journals Terry kept during the Marathon of Hope and drawing from extensive interviews with family and friends, TERRY presents a dramatic and surprising look at a dynamic young man whose fierce determination has earned the respect, admiration and love of people everywhere.

Shawn Ashmore gives an outstanding performance as Terry Fox, as he embraces the spirit and character of a Canadian hero.

This film is rated PG. Parental guidance suggested. Some material may not be suitable for children.
