The true story of an American dreamer.

Based on the life of Milton Hershey, founder of the iconic Hershey chocolate company. Milton's grit and determination to conquer the world of candy-making propel him from bankruptcy to monumental success, and the love of his life, Kitty, helps him build a legacy sweeter than any candy bar. But when Kitty falls ill, Milton’s wild optimism teeters on the edge of destruction, and she sparks an even bolder dream: to leave their fortune in the hands of America’s orphans.
