Based on a true story, “War Eagle, Arkansas” shares the inspiring story of a high school baseball star that must choose between pursuing a college sports career and staying near family and friends in his struggling rural Ozark Mountain community. Enoch Cass (Luke Grimes) is charming in his wish to hold on to loved-ones, including lifelong best friend Samuel Macon (Dan McCabe) whom he affectionately calls “Wheels” because he uses a wheelchair. The two share an enduring spirit strengthened by Samuel’s Cerebral Palsy and Enoch’s debilitating stutter, both of which have kept them in need of each other for most of their lives

Also starring: Brian Dennehy (Golden Globe Winner, Tony Winner), James McDaniel (Emmy Award Winner), Mary Kay Place (Emmy Award Winner), and Mare Winningham (Academy Award Nominee, Golden Globe Winner).

The film has won over 20 independent film festival awards, including Best Picture and Best Actor at major festivals such as the Breckenridge Film Festival, the Hollywood Film Festival, and California Independent Film Festival.

A highlight of the 2013 ReelAbilities Film Festival powered by the Jewish Community Center of Northern Virginia, The Arc of Northern Virginia is pleased to bring this award-winning film back to Northern Virginia for one night only.
