Based on a true story, a couple’s adulterous affair leads to an unexpected pregnancy. They leave their spouses to begin a new life together, but their daughter, Katelyn, is born with a birth defect. While her dad believes Katelyn’s condition is God’s punishment for the affair, Katelyn, with only one fully developed arm, defies all odds with an incredible gift for softball. “I Can” is a story about Katelyn overcoming adversity, and her dad eventually finding genuine forgiveness.
Q-tips say: Yes, see it. I Can is a faith-based sports biopic about young Katelyn Pavey (Danner Brown), who was born with one arm and becomes a star athlete who doesn’t see her disability as something that holds her back. Katelyn’s father and grandparents are positive role models who are encouraging and supportive.
Mrs. Q says: It would have been nice to see more of the relationship between Katelyn and her mother, as well as Katelyn and her sisters (not to mention Eric (the father) interacting with his other daughters).
