“Save a mile for yourself. Honor your own life.”

Single mother Beck, who lives in Six Nations, has been running from reality. Her “breakfast of champions” is a 5 cream, 5 sugar coffee, and donuts. Something has to give and it does when Beck finds herself in a diabetic coma and visited by a ghostly ancestor, the legendary Indigenous marathon runner Tom Longboat, who becomes her wise-cracking new life coach. Told with a lighthearted touch, RUN WOMAN RUN  is a feel-good anti-rom-com about a woman who has to tackle the ghosts of her past before she can run toward a new future.

“RUN WOMAN RUN is a lighthearted film with serious messages that doesn’t shy away from the big topics, but at its heart it is an underdog story about overcoming obstacles and belief in ones self.” (Richard Crouse)
