A Film from The 11TH Shanghai International Film Festival
Korea, 2008, 124 min.
Star handball player Han Mi-sook anchored the women's national handball team to two gold medals in 1988 and 1992. Retired from the sport, she works as a lowly supermarket assistant to support her young child and debt-ridden husband. When former teammate Kim Hye-gyeong is asked to return from a coaching job in Japan to put together a national team for the 2004 Athens Olympics, she persuades Mi-sook to return to the sport. However, Hye-gyeong is soon ousted as the coach in favour of her former lover, star handball player Ahn Seung-pil. Initially angry and resentful, she swallows her pride and joins Mi-sook as just another player. Ahn introduces a European-style training regime and a strict diet that alienates the team who are used to doing things the Korean way. Just as team moral has hit rock bottom, they are defeated in a practice game with a boy's high school. Can they still recapture their former glory and create a viable team in time for the Olympics?
