Flipping the script on one of the most famous upsets in sports history, this documentary explores the 1980 "Miracle on Ice" from the perspective of the defeated Soviet Union national hockey team. Anchored by the journey of legendary defenseman Slava Fetisov, the film delves into the grueling, politically charged world of the Red Army hockey program. In doing so, it reveals the profound human cost and cultural aftermath experienced by the men who found themselves on the wrong side of a miracle.
