World Premiere

From a broken NFL glass ceiling to Michelin-starred kitchens, the White House garden to college marching bands, fiberglass funhouses to beach-read royalty, this documentary spotlights the groundbreaking achievements of underappreciated American icons, including Virginians, Mark Kline, David Gum, and Patrick O’Connell, whose influence stretches far beyond state lines.  

Created by an Emmy-winning documentary team, One of a Kind lives up to its name as a collection of inspiring portraits of those who call America home. The film weaves together vivid vignettes into a propulsive tale of tenacity and triumph in the face of impossible odds while also serving as an intimate look beyond individual achievements into the personalities and struggles that changed lives.
