Dallas, TX – The ONE HEART movie is looking for fans of all ages to serve as extras in key scenes in the film, on October 17, at Grapevine Faith Stadium in Grapevine, TX.
Director, Mark Ellis will be recreating the emotional and inspirational, special game that has launched a movement and inspired millions. The night will be filled with entertainment, food, giveaways and other excitement.
Based on real-life events, One Heart tells the amazing story of a 2008 high school football game between Grapevine Faith School and the Gainesville State School, a maximum-security juvenile facility. They were two groups from diverse backgrounds whose paths crossed to create life-changing hope and inspiration for those on both sides of the ball. Two teams, two cultures, One Heart. The movie is being produced by Eterné Films in association with Birchwood Pictures.
“One Heart is a powerful story that is already impacting troubled kids right where we live and all across America,” said Jason Witten, All-Pro tight end for the Dallas Cowboys.
