Batkid Begins: The Wish Heard Around the World explores the good deeds of the Make-A-Wish Foundation as it fulfills the wish of cancer patient Miles Scott’s dream to be Bat Kid, an accomplice to Batman. The simple wish turns into one of the biggest extravaganzas ever planned by the foundation. The film is a loving tribute to what people can accomplish when working together to fulfill the dreams of another individual. It’s a terrific testimony to the human spirit and the goodness of people. Thank you to Director Dana Nachman for outstanding direction of this documentary.
