Changing Track | Nambour Screening

After disability and trauma forces life to change track, the discovery of cycling reveals a powerful new ability that drives three unique athletes to chase a Paralympic dream.

In a velodrome on the other side of the world, three Australian cyclists are about to chase a Paralympic dream that they could never have anticipated. At age 27, Emily Petricola was in the grips of depression after the diagnosis of MS, teenager Korey Boddington lay in a coma after a motocross accident and Kane Perris, born with Albinism, was suffering from the bitter effects of schoolyard bullying. Later, forced to challenge their situation, they discover a powerful new ability in cycling and a community that encourages them to focus on what they can do, rather than what they can’t. Now, with the Paralympics in reach, Emily faces a cruel and progressive disease that threatens her future, Kane senses familiar anxieties creeping in through the pressures of tandem cycling and Korey trusts a motto that has guided him since the trauma of his youth. What does it take for Paralympic dreams to come true?
