July 24 | Ajax Community Centre | GOAT: Rated PG
In a vibrant world inhabited entirely by animals, Will, a small but determined goat, dreams of playing professional roarball, a fast-paced, full-contact sport dominated by the biggest and strongest competitors. When he unexpectedly earns a spot on a professional team, Will faces skepticism from teammates and rivals who doubt that someone his size belongs on the court.
As he works to prove himself, Will relies on his skill, determination and creativity to challenge long-held assumptions about what it takes to succeed. Along the way, he learns valuable lessons about teamwork, perseverance and believing in yourself, while inspiring others to see that greatness isn't defined by size.
