- Synopsis
- Winner of 9 film festival awards throughout the U.S., this inspirational documentary by filmmaker Christian de Rezendes profiles the life of Matty Christian from a small town in Massachusetts, who was born without a full set of arms, legs and tongue, and yet inspired many people to do better, and to become the best that he could, winning numerous athletic competitions and even getting an MBA, destined to take his place running his fathers business when tragedy struck. A film for all ages in an era when bullying has never had more meaning, and there has never been a more compelling hero than Matty Christian. Raising Matty Christian paints a portrait of an inspiring young man who never took no for an answer, and set out to live life to the fullest, and the parents, friends and neighbors that supported him through it all.
