Description

The Detroit Red Wings worked to finally break their decades long Stanley Cup drought by extracting players from the Soviet Union, and in the process, changed the way North American hockey is played. Sports and politics clash in this Award-Winning documentary about five Russian hockey stars who defected to America to join the Red Wings in the 1980s, leading to the team's back-to-back Stanley Cups.
