The award-winning documentary short "The Endless Mile” presents the captivating journey of 85-year-old Jimmie Barnes as he endeavors to set a World Record by walking 114 miles in 48 hours. "The Endless Mile" delves into the essence of life’s fragility, the strengthening bonds within a family, and the universal thread of human connection. The story traces Jimmie’s path from his home in Alabama to the United Kingdom, where he competes in a World Championship ultra-marathon, buoyed by the unwavering support of his wife and daughters. An unexpected medical condition jeopardizes his attempt to complete the challenge in the UK, and the goal appears to slip definitively out of reach.
