The Summer of Simon
Simon is a dreamer like many of us. He loves freedom and goes through walls with his head. A normal boy who would like to see San Francisco, the Pacific Ocean and the Golden Gate Bridge once in his life. The only thing standing between him and that dream was Duchenne muscular dystrophy, an incurable, life-shortening disease. But that couldn't stop the courageous man from a small town in Thuringia from living out his big dream with family and friends. A touching story of the summer of 2019 - Simon's summer. Great cinema for all who love to dream. And an unprecedented action by a community in which hundreds of people have given wings to a dream in a unique crowdfunding campaign.
