At heart, Rocky Dennis is a typical American teenager. But, Rocky is very different; hugely disfigured from a rare bone disease, he brushes off the hurtful school jokes and lives every day to the full, knowing that each may be his last.
Based on a true story, this moving and uplifting film features Eric Stoltz as the young man whose exceptional spirit enables him to rise above an intolerable existence, and Oscar-winning Cher as his determined and unconventional mother.
