Summary:
Based on the inspirational true story of one mother's unfaltering love in the face of impossible odds. When Joyce Smith's adopted son John falls through an icy Missouri lake, all hope seems lost. But as John lies lifeless, Joyce refuses to give up. Her steadfast belief inspires those around her to continue to pray for John's recovery, even in the face of every case history and scientific prediction. A reminder that faith and love can create a mountain of hope, and sometimes even a miracle. "'Breakthrough' might be the first faith-based Hollywood film with genuine crossover appeal."--San Francisco Chronicle. "'Breakthrough' glibly peddles miracles but is honest enough to admit that not everybody gets one."--Washington Post. "This inspirational story directed by Roxann Dawson benefits from strong performances and a minimum of treacly preaching."--Hollywood Reporter.
