HELP AMERICA BRING THE WRIGHT BROTHERS’ STORY TO THE BIG SCREEN

For nearly 125 years, the world has celebrated the miracle of flight — but the Wright brothers have never received the definitive major motion picture their legacy deserves. Join us in changing that.

Written & Directed By Allen Farst

Based on The Bishop’s Boys by Tom Crouch

THE STORY OF TWO BROTHERS. THE FUTURE OF THE WORLD.

Before Silicon Valley, before NASA, before commercial aviation, two brothers from Dayton changed the future of mankind. Their story is not just about flight. It is about family, faith, failure, invention, courage, and the American spirit.

Now, as the 125th anniversary of flight approaches, we are building the feature film that finally gives the Wright brothers the cinematic treatment they deserve.

Our Partners: The Wright Family

Amanda Wright Lane is the great-grandniece and Stephen Wright is the great-grandnephew to Orville and Wilbur Wright. Today, they guide the family and keep the story of the Wright brothers front and center.

  • WE ARE THRILLED THAT ALLEN FARST AND PALMAR STUDIOS ARE TAKING ON ONE OF THE GREATEST STORIES OF HUMANKIND.”

    — Amanda Wright Lane, great-grandniece of Wilbur & Orville Wright

  • “AFTER ALL THESE YEARS, IT IS GOOD TO KNOW THAT THE BOOK AND THE STORY OF THE WRIGHT FAMILY IS IN GOOD HANDS!”

    — Tom Crouch, Author of The Bishop’s Boys source

  • The invention of flight has to be in the top 10 (inventions of all time) - look what it has created, exploration into space, walking on the moon, that was all about powered flight and of course it evolved tremendously, but It had to start with somebody and Orville and Wilbur were the ones.
