HEART OF A DRAGON
Motion Picture


www.heartofadragonmovie.com

Over 20 years ago,
Michael French flew with a film crew from Vancouver, British Columbia to Beijing
and documented something quite
extraordinary – Rick Hansen, a young man in a wheelchair accompanied by a few of
his closest friends who, half-way through their 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, the motion picture “Heart of a Dragon” was born. And since then,
Michael French and his closest friends set off on a
journey to make a feature film about hope and dreams that captivated him and an
a million Chinese people 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.

If any organization is interested in seeing the film and
possibly using "Heart of a Dragon" for their community outreach and/or
fundraising efforts, to please contact Blaise Noto & Associates at

blaisenotoassociates@gmail.com

“Heart of a Dragon” is produced, directed and written by Michael French.
 Executive producers are Mark Gordon, who produced the
Oscar® nominated  “Saving Private Ryan” and “The Patriot”, and David Foster,
14-time Grammy® award winning producer and songwriter.
