    What a great message for future generations to see that regardless of race, religion, sexual orientation and other prejudices, athletes can come together and accept their teammates for who they are.

    The director did a beautiful job telling this story through the lense of sports. These atheltes had to deal with a lot of adversity, and they continued persevere. 10 out of 10!

    We’re so inundated with entertainment that we never even consider what the entertainers had to overcome just to be in front of us, or how many never even got the chance. We need more films like this. Bravo!

  • Powerful and enlightening

    Powerful take on the issues and struggles athletes face. Interesting to hear directly from the greats themselves, esp folks like Allyson Felix. Never knew much of what the film portrays.
