Set against the backdrop of the 1992 Olympic Figure Skating Competition, the film centers on the life of Doug Dorsey, a brash, blue collar hockey player who is destined for stardom in the NHL until an overzealous opponent leaves him blindsided. In a last ditch effort to capture the Gold, he teams up with Kate Moseley, a prima donna pairs figure skater whose domineering talent and razor-sharp wit puts Doug on very thin ice.
