In Search of a Golden Sky is a 1984 family drama film released by Comworld Pictures. In the film, three orphan children find solace in their uncle's wilderness home after their mother has died.[1][5]

Shot on location in the state of Utah, Golden Sky was completed in 1982,[1] but not released until two years later.[6] It received a video release in early 1987 on CBS/Fox's Playhouse label.[2][5]

Utah's Deseret News gave the film one and a half stars out of four. The "dreadful family picture", it commented, "[has] one of the most ridiculously contrived, unintentionally humorous endings ever".[3]
