About

Cha Heon-tae, a Korean-American, was adopted with his sister to American parents. He appears on a Korean television program in search of his mother. Since Heon-tae is a trained alpine skier, he is approached by Coach Bang who wants to recruit members for a new national ski jumping team for the approaching 1998 Winter Olympics.

The snowy slopes of a fledgling national ski jumping team provide a surprisingly heartwarming backdrop for an unlikely group of misfits. This underdog tale finds its soul in the search for lost family roots and the frantic pursuit of Olympic glory.
