Ed Oxenbould (Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day), Sam Worthington (Avatar, Clash of the Titans) and David Wenham (Lord of the Rings trilogy, Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga'Hoole) star in this inspiring movie about a young boy's passion for flight. Eleven-year-old Dylan (Oxenbould) is getting a hard time from a school bully, but when a regional paper plane tournament is announced at his primary school, Dylan soon discovers his natural talent for creating the ultimate paper plane. During a whirlwind adventure that takes him all the way to Japan for the world championships, Dylan meets the junior Japanese champion, Kimi, and they develop a close bond challenging each other to build the most beautiful paper plane ever made. Inspired by his carefree ex fighter-pilot grandfather and a kite hawk he feeds on his way to school, Dylan learns that if at first you don't succeed, fly, fly again!
