Sie waren Helden (2006)
Bei einem tragischen Flugzeugunglück kommen 75 Menschen ums Leben, darunter fast das gesamte Footballteam und der Trainerstab der Marshall University. An diesem Punkt der wahren Ereignisse beginnt Regisseur McG seine bewegende Geschichte: Der Rektor der Marshall University, Donald Dedmon, ist fest entschlossen, das Footballteam zu erhalten, auch im Gedenken an die toten Teamkameraden. Als neuer Trainer wird Jack Lengyel für diese schwere Aufgabe verpflichtet. Doch schnell zeigt sich, dass Coach Lengyel und sein Assistent Red Dawson vor großen Herausforderungen stehen, denn nicht jeder an der Marshall University sieht in dem neuen Trainer auch eine Chance für einen Neubeginn.
