Synopsis
Fifteen-year-old Dani was born with her heart on the wrong side of her body, a condition called dextrocardia. Fourteen-year-old Amanda puts her heart and soul into competitive gymnastics. One girl lives a life of x-rays, tests, and endless hospital visits while the other is on the fast-track to the national championship. During a brilliant gymnastic routine, Amanda slips and a young life with so much potential comes to an end. With Amanda's death, Dani, in desperate need of a heart transplant, gets a second chance.
