Director Justin Baldoni stumbles upon Zach Sobiech's story and sets out to find him.

Intercut with footage from their auditions, we meet Fin, Sabrina, Madison, Neve, and Tom as Justin sends the cast to meet their real-life counterparts in Minnesota and New York City.

Justin speaks to the significance of intertwining surprising elements throughout the film to create and maintain not only the sincerity of the set but also the emotional resonance through the entirety of production.

When Justin tasks Fin with creating an original song to be performed in the film, Fin surprises himself when he discovers that his new song is directly connected to one Zach had been writing but was unable to finish before he passed away.
