Above All Else is a Staff Pick film that won third place in Audience Awards 2016 Adventure Shorts Film Festival and went on to screen at AudFest in North Hollywood in April 2017.
In 1992, professional skydiver Dan Brodsky-Chenfeld boarded a plane for a routine training jump. Six weeks later, he awoke from a coma to discover that a terrible accident had crippled his body and shattered his dream of becoming a World Champion. Five simple words from a friend inspire him to attempt to overcome impossible odds and achieve his lifelong goal.
