Description
CHARLIE'S LAKE delves into a typical year in the life of Jon Whitmer, a man who refuses to allow the day-to-day challenges of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy to slow him. During the course of the program, Jon turns 30, defying doctors who did not expect him to live past the age of 15. Ultimately, the documentary exposes Jon's keys to exceeding his grim prognosis: optimism, a sense of humor and family. Filmed over two years, CHARLIE'S LAKE provides a glimpse into the realities of one working-class Montana family face as they try to manage Jon's terminal illness with very few resources.
