August Rush is a 2007 musical drama film directed by Kirsten Sheridan and produced by Richard Barton Lewis. The screenplay is by Nick Castle and James V. Hart, with a story by Paul Castro and Castle. It tells the story of an 11-year-old musical prodigy living in an orphanage who runs away to New York City.
