The Cokeville Miracle



THE COKEVILLE MIRACLE
Coming to theaters June 5th
  • On May 9, 1986, in the small, ranching community of Cokeville, Wy, David and Doris Young took an elementary school hostage for several hours before detonating a bomb inside a single classroom that held every teacher and student in the school. In the wake of the madness, Ron Hartley, whose children were inside the classroom, must fight his skepticism and unbelief as he hears eye witness accounts from the students of miraculous, heavenly intervention during the crisis. When tragedy strikes... what do you see?

WHAT YOU CAN DO TO HELP


* See The Cokeville Miracle as a way to tell Hollywood that uplifting entertainment still has a place at the box office. The Cokeville Miracle will open June 5th, the same weekend as a major Hollywood "shoot 'em up" film and a Hollywood horror film.

* Please encourage all your friends to go see the film opening weekend. The Cokeville Miracle is an independent film. Independent films only have opening weekend to prove to the theaters that they can draw an audience. The more movie-goers we can encourage to see The Cokeville Miracle on June 5th, the longer the film will be in theaters.

* As a way to honor those whose lives have been impacted by the horrific experience of school violence and out of respect to the survivors, you are invited to join in the digital day of silence by turning off your devices and spending 3 hours with the people you love.
