Review: True Spirit Movie Review | Netflix
Ben Bryant is the coach of Jessica Watson in the movie, But in real life, Ben Bryant is not the person who helped her, In the movie, the director portrayed the Ben Bryant character as a group of people who helped her during her journey.
At the end of the movie when they show the real footage Ben Bryant was not there. That surely means that this choice is made by the director to add that additional character and this happens all the time when the movie is based on the book.
