“Team Casa!”

From Blue Miracle.

Omar (Jimmy Gonzales) and his wife, Becca (Fernanda Urrejola), run an orphanage for boys in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico called Casa Hogar. After surviving a childhood on the streets as an orphan himself, Omar has created a home filled with safety, laughter, and love for dozens of boys. When a police officer brings Moco (Miguel Angel Garcia), a young, orphaned thief to the home, Omar takes the boy to return the stolen watch to its rightful owner, the rough has-been fisherman Wade (Dennis Quaid). After returning the watch, Moco disappears and Omar hopes that the boy will return to the home in the future. Finances are tight at the orphanage, but Omar and Becca manage to make it work until Hurricane Odile in 2014 leaves the home in desperate need of repairs and the bank demanding back their overdue loan. When Omar reaches out to friends Wayne (Bruce McGill) and Tricia Bisbee (Dana Wheeler-Nicholson) to borrow equipment to fix up the home after the hurricane, but when Wayne hears of Omar’s financial troubles he comes up with an idea that will change Casa Hogar forever. Wade wants to enter the world-renowned fishing competition–Bisbee’s Black & Blue Tournament–under the free local category, but since he doesn’t meet the requirements, Wayne tells him that he can enter for free if he teams up with Casa Hogar for the competition. Wade is very reluctant to take the kids, but he can’t refuse the prize opportunity, so he convinces Omar to pick several older boys to join the 3-day competition. Reluctantly, Omar takes Geco (Anthony Gonzalez), Wiki (Isaac Arellanes), Hollywood (Nathan Arenas), and the just-returned Moco with Wade and his deckhand, Chato (Silverio Palacios) out onto the ocean. As the boys struggle with their differences, Omar with his doubt and bills, and Wade with his past demons, the tournament seems hopeless until young orphan Tweety’s (Steve Gutierrez) faith changes everything.

Based on a true story, this movie shares an inspiring story that highlights the limitless kindness of one Mexican caregiver. The film does center around sport fishing, but the humor and heart will keep all viewers engaged. Quaid and Gonzales are total opposites, but they effortlessly lead Blue Miracle on an unforgettable look at the unbreakable human spirit.
