“I want to be remembered as a kid who went up fighting and didn’t lose.” – Zach Sobiech. Every once in a while, we get something that touches our heart and soul and has a lasting effect on us. Premiering on Disney+ Clouds is another such movie based on the life of Zach Sobiech who was diagnosed with Osteosarcoma in November 2009.
The struggles, the downs, the pain, the anguish and finally the acceptance of it all is beautifully portrayed in this movie which takes you behind the scenes and gives you a preview of how the teenager had to handle it all.
Zach formed a music group ‘A Firm Handshake’, and ‘Clouds’ was one of the most famous singles they ever made.
Zach turned into a sensation by singing covers. He had a dream of putting a smile on everyone’s face through his music. He left everyone too young, but his legacy will forever be in our hearts. To celebrate his memory, a special Disney+ Clouds virtual concert is directly available on their YouTube channel.
This concert is being used as a medium to spread awareness about Osteosarcoma and the need for research regarding its treatment. Clouds is a roller coaster journey which will well you up but at the same time fill you with a renewed spirit and enthusiasm for life.
The ones we love may not be around us, but their stories and the way they made us stay with us forever. Clouds is not only the story of a boy fighting cancer but also the struggles of his loved ones right from his parents to his best friend and how he finds a suitable outlet in the form of music.
