No Hands. No Feet. No Limits. Teen Breaks Barriers Playing Competitive Baseball in New Movie Releasing July 12, 2022.

In honor of Limb Loss Awareness Month (#LLLDAM), new documentary featuring teen ballplayer with no hands or feet releases movie trailer.

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA, USA, April 22, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ — In honor of Limb Loss Awareness Month (#LLLDAM), Taikuli Productions and Challenged Athletes Foundation (CAF) announce the upcoming release of LANDIS: JUST WATCH ME the inspiring true story of Landis Sims, a 16-year old baseball player born with a quad-congenital limb deficiency, which means he is missing both hands and feet. Landis defies the odds on and off the baseball diamond every day.

Witness the 8-year journey of Landis growing from a plucky little leaguer into a dedicated young man set on achieving his goal of motivating kids to LIVE WITHOUT LIMITS.

Throughout the film, Landis gains wisdom and inspiration from Major League Baseball’s best:

“Life rewards, those that start and if you never start, you’ll never know where you could possibly be,” said MLB pitcher Joe Musgrove.

“We all have things we have to overcome to be successful in life. It’s seeing people who get knocked down and come back, and you see that with Landis all the time. That passion that he has…that’s what I try to instill in my kids,” said Joe Girardi, MLB Manager.

However, none of Landis’ dreams could be realized with the expertise of Chief Clinical Prosthetist, David Rotter and support from CAF.

“When an amputee, like Landis, comes into my office and says, ‘I wanna play baseball,’ my first thought is…let’s make this happen. So much of this is creative thinking because there’s no manual out there that says how to create a specific baseball device for someone who’s missing all four limbs,” said David Rotter, Prosthetist.

With no hands, no feet and no limits, LANDIS: JUST WATCH ME will have you believing that anything is possible with the right mindset and hard work. Film releases in the US and Canada on major digital platforms and cable video on demand on July 12, 2022.
