filmmaker: Ben Severance

A mother’s mental strength is tested when she enrolls her son with autism in an ice skating program.

What would you do if your child couldn’t cope with the world? Would you be able to push them to their potential even if you knew it was causing them pain?

Jackson Doll is nine years old and his family has never seen him play a sport or even make a friend.

Go Jackson Doll is the story of one brave family who would do whatever necessary to see their son succeed. It’s the story of a program that challenges special needs children to realize their potential through an unlikely outlet: learning how to ice skate.
