Plot Summary: Christopher Gardner (Will Smith), a talented and promising young African-American adult, is left unemployed after a series of unfortunate circumstances obliterate his chances at a risky career venture into the stock and bond market. Having just received custody of his small son (Jaden Smith), he is reduced to poverty and homelessness. Determined to salvage his role as a father, he does whatever he can to provide some stability for his child. While seeking a roof over their head, the two wander from soup lines, to shelters, and even to train station bathrooms. Gardner’s incredible willpower and desire to become a broker eventually leads him out of scarcity and into employment. Miraculously, he lands a job as a trainee and rises through the ranks at respected companies like Dean Witter and Bear Stearns. His forceful resolve and uncanny ability to take charge of his life pays off exponentially. He becomes so successful that he opens his own brokerage company – Gardner Rich & Co. This is a true rags to riches story that defines the American dream.
