Finn on the Fly is a story about friendship, loyalty and learning to trust your instincts. Finn, a cool, life-lovin', Frisbee-playing dog, and his owner, shy 13-year-old Ben, suddenly find their lives changed when Finn is accidentally transformed into a human being when Dr. Madeline Madsen’s experiment goes wrong. Once on two legs, Finn teaches Ben to feel the wind in his fur, catch Frisbees like a dog and, ultimately, to find his own pack.
Film and television director, screenwriter and novelist, Mark Jean may be best known for Homecoming (1996), starring Anne Bancroft, for which he received a Writers’ Guild of America nomination for Best Longform Adaptation and won the Gold Award at the Houston International Film Festival.
