“The Blind Side”
The true story of Michael Oher, a homeless African-American
youngster who is taken in by the Touhys, a well-to-do white
family who help him fulfil his potential.
At the same time, Oher's presence in the Touhys' lives leads
them to some insightful self-discoveries of their own.
Living in his new environment, the teen faces a completely

As a football player and student, Oher works hard and, with
the help of his coaches and adopted family, becomes an
All-American offensive left tackle.
