About This Series

We are stoked to release our first short documentary “Keep Moving Forward | A Jack Smiley Story”. This time last year we wrapped filming on our most inspirational project to date. Keep Moving Forward tells the story of Jack Smiley, a Division III hockey player whose athletic career was abruptly halted by a tragic injury. Jack's journey is one of resilience, perseverance, and defying the odds in the face of uncertainty.
