On Oct. 2, 1970, two charter planes carrying Wichita State University football players, coaches and boosters left Denver heading to Logan, Utah. One plane followed the charted course. The other plane deviated from the plan and crashed into the side of a mountain. Nine people survived.

This powerful documentary recounts the story of the tragedy that forever altered the Wichita community and subsequent journey of healing almost 40 years later.
