Adam Hills: Grow Another Foot

Duration: 1 x 60'

Play Trailer Play Screener Contact Sales Collection: Sport

In this uplifting film, we follow comedian and Rugby League fanatic Adam Hills as he fulfils his life-long dream of playing international level rugby at the first ever Physical Disability Rugby League World Cup.

Adam Hills was born with only one foot and always dreamt of playing his favourite sport. Now with the first Rugby League World Cup tournament of its kind on the horizon, he finally has the chance of a lifetime.

However, Sydney born Adam has a crucial decision to make - should he pull on the green and gold of Australia…or join his regular rugby family who make up the England team?

Whichever way he goes, a tournament of hard hitting rugby mayhem awaits, one which will test Adam's limits further than ever before.

In 2019, Adam was involved in the birth of Warrington Wolves' Physical Disability Rugby League team in England - a challenge documented in the film Adam Hills Takes His Legs.
