Description
A stand-up-and-cheer movie about loyalty, courage, and conviction, set amid the intense and often fierce competition of championship rugby.
Best friends and teammates Rick (Sean Faris, Never Back Down) and Lars (Penn Badgley, Gossip Girl) become bitter rivals when Rick’s free-spirited lifestyle lands him in juvenile detention. There a concerned counselor (Sean Astin, Lord of the Rings, Rudy) and a national championship rugby coach (Gary Cole, Office Space) recruit Rick for a new team – and a new direction.
Based on actual events surrounding the perennial powerhouse Highland Rugby program (379 wins – 9 losses, and 18 of the last 24 national championships), Forever Strong is a film that combines heart-stopping, on-the-field action with a life-changing story of victory.
