Before watching the film:

Answer the following questions:

- What happens at the end?
-Write a brief summary of the story

LET´S OVERCOME DIFFICULTIES
 
Here we have some pictures of  the boy starring the film: Nick Vujicic
 
 
He was born on 4th December 1982 in Brisbane,Australia. He was born with this disability (he had no legs, no arms). With a great effort and the help of his family, he got his degrees, and nowadays, he gives conferences to help other people; he´s written some books and he also made that film "The Butterfly Circus)
