- Fast Dreams is a journey paved with the valleys and peaks from a season in the roller-coaster world of Professional track and field. The story chronicles the arrival of nationally herald teenage track star Bianca Knight to the University of Texas Lady Longhorns team. A once-in-a-decade sprinting talent who quickly places the spotlight on the Lady Longhorns and herself. Weaving flawlessly in story is the unselfish dedication of the All-American upperclassman, Alexandria Anderson. We learn within a shocking pace, that both these young track stars do not define "dreams" the same way Throughout the journey the audience gets an uninhibited invitation into a coaching legend. Coach Beverly Kearney's omnipresent commitment to values and hard work capture the viewer. Her coaching blueprint has produced fourteen Olympians winning nine Olympic medals, four of which were gold. And, not unfamiliar with tragedy, Coach Bev has triumphed over a near fatal automobile accident in 2002. The accident left her in a wheelchair with repeated diagnoses that she would never walk again. Fast Dreams sets the podium for an in-dept conversation about societies definition of "winner" and "loser", "self" and "selfless." Director Harry Davis, of 99 Ways Entertainment, captures every essential step in this canvas of team unity and individual pursuit. The director allows the story to take the lead from the opening gun to the finish line - making for classic documentary cinema.—Harry Davis
