- 14-year old Ralph fears life as an orphan if his mother doesn’t emerge from a coma. Desperate to believe a miracle is the answer to his mother’s recovery, Ralph sets out to actualize the miracle by running the 1954 Boston marathon despite ridicule from his peers and the threat of expulsion from the school principal, Father Fitzpatrick. With faith in his heart and guidance from his rebellious teacher and coach, Father Hibbert (Campbell Scott), Ralph reaches beyond his place in the world to perform a miracle.
