Racing Dreams

The documentary movie “Racing Dreams” is the award winning coming of age story about three kids who dream of one day racing in NASCAR. Academy Award nominated documentary filmmaker, Marshall Curry, takes us into the lives of Annabeth Barnes (11 years old), Josh Hobson (12), and Brandon Warren (13) as they compete for the championship in the World Karting Association’s National Series — widely considered the Little League for professional racing. Clocking speeds of up to 70 mph, these young drivers race their way through the year long National Series that spawned many of NASCAR’s top drivers. And at the same time, they navigate the treacherous road between childhood and young adulthood. In intimate moments of young love and family struggle, this exciting and often humorous story has been fondly described as “part Catcher in the Rye, part Talledega Nights.”
