The documentary "For Once In My Life" will premiere during the film portion of the South By Southwest festival. It celebrates the greatness within each of us and the music that brings us together—laced together with a killer soundtrack.
The 29 members of the Goodwill Industries of South Florida’s ‘Spirit of Goodwill' band, who are featured in this inspirational film, each face varying mental and physical abilities, such as Autism, Down Syndrome and blindness.
As they prepare for a once-in- a-lifetime performance, they face the same challenges that all performers faces—learning to play and sing new music, while coming together as a band.
The result is an inspiring and entertaining film that highlights the power of laughter, family, friends, and—of course—music.
