This moving reminded me that the choices I make not only affect me but it's a ripple effect that goes to the very edge of life itself. This inspiring movie also proves that while a negative ripple may come and go, many great ones can take its place!

Good story. Characters and cast were believable to match the script and theme. Not actually a chick flick :) I recommend it.

What a great movie. It really is wonderful when someone believes in you and is supportive. More people need to step up to the plate and be an encouragement to those who are lost in this world.

Firelight

Dwayne Johnson (DJ), is a counselor at a correctional facility for troubled young women. Salvation for many of the women comes when they join an elite band of volunteers who battle forest fires, build hiking trails in remote areas, and assist during natural disasters. The volunteers have to survive several weeks of rigorous training, stay in peak physical condition, and learn to work as a team, often in life-threatening situations. DJ developed the volunteer force because he wanted to change the way the girls see themselves. Team leader Terry and her friend Keisha hope to convince Caroline, a new inmate with considerable obstacles to overcome, to join the group.
Starring Cuba Gooding Jr., DeWanda Wise, and Q'Orianka Kilcher.
