Over twenty years ago, Michael French flew with a film crew from Vancouver, British Columbia to Beijing and documented something quite extraordinary, a young man in a wheelchair accompanied by a few of his closest friends who, half-way through their around the Man in Motion World Tour, entered Beijing with over 1 million Chinese heralding his arrival as a hero. Why this man and why in China?
In that moment, "Heart of a Dragon" was born. And since then, French set off on his own personal journey to make a feature film about hope and dreams that captivated him and a million Chinese over two decades ago - a story of a man, Everyman, who, in a test of his own self endurance, discovers the true meaning of love, loyalty, friendship, the strength of the human spirit.
