A former professional baseball player who was dropped from his winning team after he failed a seemingly easy task on the field. Now, he is a washed up alcoholic, who forgets his daughter's age, and continues refusing to get a "real job". But Calvin Campbell (Kristoffer Polaha) isn't all that bad. In the middle of his midlife crisis, he meets a young man at the grocery store working at the produce aisle. Produce (David DeSanctis) has downs syndrome, and a tremendously loving heart. A loving heart that can warm even the most blackened and damaged person, like Calvin.

'Where Hope Grows' is an upcoming heart-warming drama from writer/director Chris Dowling ('Rock Slyde'), and featuring downs syndrome actor David DeSanctis in his debut acting performance. The film made its premiere at the Dallas International Film Festival on 6th April 2015 to critical praise. During the production of the film, it was called 'Produce: Where Hope Grows' as a working title, drawing more attention to DeSanctis' character. The film is set to make a limited theatrical run in the US on 15th May 2015.
