“Everyone knew it was impossible, yet a fool - who did not know it was impossible - came along and did it” (M. Pagnol)
The dream of flying is as old as mankind itself.
Freedom and responsibility, physical and spiritual elevation.
Sabrina and a group of very special pilots teach us that dreams not only consist of a sequence of images. Saint-Exupery (not without reason was a pilot) said “But eyes are blind. You have to look with the heart”.
This story goes beyond overcoming disabilities, it’s about the strength of those who live up to their own desires: there are no barriers up in the clouds.
