SUMMARY OF MOVIE:
Based on a true story about a man named Chris Gardner.
Gardner has invested heavily in a device known as a "bone density
scanner". He feels like he has it made selling these devices. However,
they do not sell well as they are marginally better than x-ray at a much
higher price. As Gardner works to make ends meet, his wife leaves him
and he loses his apartment. Forced to live out in the streets with his son,
Gardner continues to sell bone density scanners while concurrently
taking on an unpaid internship as a stockbroker, with slim chances for
advancement to a paid position. Before he can receive pay, he needs to
outshine the competition through 6 months of training, and to sell his
devices to stay afloat.
