At 18, after losing his leg to cancer, Terry Fox sets out to run a marathon a day across Canada to raise money for cancer research. In losing his leg, he found a purpose. In pursuing it, he inspired a nation.
What begins as one young man’s seemingly impossible journey becomes the Marathon of Hope, capturing the attention of Canadians from coast to coast and transforming Terry into an enduring symbol of courage, determination and selflessness.
TERRY is an authorized motion picture telling the extraordinary true story of Terry Fox — not simply as a Canadian icon, but as the fiercely determined young man behind one of the most remarkable journeys in Canadian history.
