“7 Yards: The Chris Norton Story” is a feature-length documentary that explores the resilience and perspective of Chris Norton, who at age 18, suffered a debilitating spinal cord injury during a football game at Luther College in Decorah, Iowa. Doctors gave him just a 3 percent chance to ever move again.
After years of intense medical therapy and physical training, Chris’ story went viral in 2015 when he successfully walked across the college graduation stage with the help of his fiancée Emily. Soon after, Chris and Emily set an ambitious new goal: walk seven yards side-by-side down their wedding aisle.
