Once in a while, there’ll be these sport competition stories about underdogs that capture the hearts and minds with audiences. With a story about a group of orphans winning a fishing tournament against professional seasoned competitors—that’s an entire different world altogether. In Netflix’s Blue Miracle starring Dennis Quaid and Jimmy Gonzalez, they bring this incredible unbelievable story to life that tells us anything can happen—if you only believe.

Here’s the official synopsis:

The local boys orphanage Case Hogar is about to go bankrupt and their director Papa Omar (Jimmy Gonzalez) is desperate to find a way to save it. With all avenues closed, he turns to a local fishing tournament with hopes of a miracle. There’s one small problem, neither he nor his boys have ever fished. They team up with the reluctant Captain Wade Malloy (Dennis Quaid), a previous tournament champion, hoping he can steer them to victory. Unbeknownst to them, Molloy is fighting his own challenges. Once out on the open ocean, unexpected friendships are created, strengths are tested, and the power of faith. We see miracles do come true.
