Inspired by a local legend, devoted brothers attempt to transform their ordinary red wagon into working airplane.

Lorraine Bracco, John Heard and Oscar winner Ben Johnson (Best Supporting Actor, The Last PictureShow) star in this moving story of a family torn apart by violence - and healed by imagination. Elijah Wood and Joseph Mazzello co-star as Bracco's two young sons, devoted brothers who escape their chaotic family life with dreams of flying. Inspired by a local legend, they attempt to build a working airplane. And in the process of transforming their ordinary red wagon into a fantastical flying machine, they transform their own lives into an extraordinary adventure. A beautifully-made movie filled with all the heartache and joy of childhood, Radio Flyer is "daring, amazing, and wonderful.A deeply moving film." (Dennis Cunningham, WCBS-TV)
