Long Synopsis:
After hitting rock-bottom, a newly sober paraplegic (Gabriel Cordell) attempts to save his gangbanger nephew’s life by bringing him along on a 3,100-mile wheelchair trek across the United States. Their support crew is a band of unlikely co-conspirators from very different backgrounds, each dealing with their own issues — PTSD, homelessness, unemployment, family estrangement and sobriety struggles. In an age divided, ROLL WITH ME ignites our common humanity and urges us to find our inner hero or heroine.
