Chris Gardner is an excellent black sales agent with deep money problems. As he cannot pay the house’s rent because he has no job, he, together with his five years old son, is being evicted from his San Francisco flat and so he has nowhere to live and he starts by sleeping on the subway toilettes. Then, as pure luck, he is hired as a broker by a famous consulting financial firm, a job that at the beginning proves quite difficult and to cap it all he must live in a homeless shelter. Later on and after having passed many hurdles he can fulfil is dream of a better life for both him and his son.
