Catch this film about Beijing, its people and their dreams the summer before the Olympics. A boy wants to beat the odds to become an Olympic torchbearer. A road sweeper dreams of staging his own mass Olympic performance. An aging blind athlete makes one last stab at medal before he retires. Their stories, together with scenes of everyday life in the city give a poignant snapshot of China's capital the summer before the Olympics.
