Movie description:
Eli lives in a small Hutterite farming community and wants to be a pilot. His guardian uncle, a chicken farmer, has other plans. When his own and his uncle’s dreams for his future collide, Eli runs away to find his true vocation in the city. It’s here that he must confront the world as it is, away from the safety of his family and community.
Eli Hoffer is a young Hutterite boy who dreams of one day becoming a pilot. But the strict confines of both the traditional Hutterite culture and an uncompromising uncle leave little hope of that Dream ever coming true.
So, in a desperate attempt to hang onto that dream, Eli flees the security of the colony and ends up in the big city hopelessly trapped by a gang of street kids on the strangest night of the year – Halloween.
Bent on pulling off the perfect little crime, the gang makes Eli an unwitting accomplice to their plan, propelling him into a confrontation with a mysterious war vet. And in a moment of truth, he discovers the power of friendship and forgiveness ...and then his dream really takes flight.
