MOVIE:
RACE TO REDEMPTION also known as Race to win.
Race to Redemption is a movie directed my Teddy Smith and written by Suan Huze, Gianna Montelaro, The movie is about a girl called Hannah Rodes(Danielle Campbell) from Hancock County, Mississippi, After the death of her father, she must find the strength to face her fears and compete in the bail racing championship to pay her father's debts or her family will lose their farm. She is a prized character what is strong willed and is determined to save her family's farm.I choose this film due to the ups and down she faces, the loss, determination, failer, and the way she gets up and is alway willing to get back on the horse (literally). the most meaning full quote in this movie has to be "everything will be okay" it is said by friends of the family and the family throw out the movie.It shows that Hannah has suffered grief and had tried to give up yet she doesn't.The phrase is a simple yet in the content in the movie is powerful and encourage's her to keep on going throw the loss and failure.Throughout this film, you see that family and resilience are strong points due to the difficult position's she is put throw.One thing the film goes into detail about is her family and the horses.

This story is built on a strong character development although this movie. Hannah grows and understands a lot from beginning and end. In the beginning, she is happy and content with her life, for example at the start she is riding throw the meadows of their farm land with her father when her father asks her to make a promise " to always kept this place in the family" yet she doesn't seem fazed by his sudden seriousness and takes at an idea instead of a promise. Which made me quick to my own opinions of her character and her role in the story because I was wondering why she was never told or sore he was ill or unwell because it was her father some who she said later in the movie " me and my father don't keep secrets" which I came to the conclusion that he nor she knew of his illness. Hannah is a character is happy to try bolder idea to reach her goals and expectations. You see that she is strong opinion and is aways friendly unless they are meddling in her personal business and that's when she becomes defensive and relentless. Hannah's world is surrounded by horses and the love she shares with them. the bonds she creates with her family and her horses are similar in concept due to her kindness and aberration she has towards them. She and her father are alike which I think is one of the reasons she is son determined to keep that farm isn't out of a promise but the hope to have something to love and cherish.Throughout the movie, you see Hannah change from a girl who is always looking for permission from her father to a woman who can keep her family and herself safe through all the struggle they have.

This story is relatable to me on a more personal level as I would go to extreme lengths to protect want I had and that I had cherished that things I have before it was gone. the thing I have in common with this movie is the struggle we face and that we try are best and alway hope for the best to appear.The movie is about grief, hope and challenges. We all have our own that we face every day and night, that sometimes go away but others appear through the air and we have to hope that we have a chance to defeat that one to carry on throw to the next day. I enjoy his movie because of her character a girl who is lost in grief strides forward to defeat the enemy of the day.I understand when she has to step our of her own world to obtain the stenght to help her faily and face her fears and understand that she can help others but she has to help herself first. the thing that makes me moved is the line " Mister Carter you saved us." because it is a simple line that makes me think back to the times that I failed or was stuck and remembered that you just keep on trying because even if you fail you have hope that you have tried hard enough to deserve what you have. It made me think of times when my sister and brother moved way making we wonder what I did to deserve to lose than when I hadn't done anything wrong and I realised that you have to help myself become strong because I am not the only grieving and they need help too.

I think the story being told through the Hannah give me a closer connection as she is a girl and that she can show want its like to have a lot of weight on your shoulders. This story is linked to many problems we face in the time era eg: eviction, death, loss, grief, and secrets.
