The inspiring story of the team that transcended its sport and united a nation
with a new feeling of hope. Based on the true story of one of the greatest
moments in sports history, the tale captures a time and place where
differences could be settled by games and a cold war could be put on ice. In
1980, the United States Ice Hockey team's coach, Herb Brooks, took a ragtag
squad of college kids up against the legendary juggernaut from the Soviet
Union at the Olympic Games. Despite the long odds, Team USA carried the
pride of a nation yearning from a distraction from world events. With the world
watching the team rose to the occasion, prompting broadcaster Al Michaels'
now famous question, to the millions viewing at home: Do you believe in
miracles? Yes!
