| Summary |
The inspirational account of a team rising to meet the ultimate challenge of winning back its honor. To Oxford University, "The Boat Race" - an annual rowing competition between Oxford and its archrival Cambridge - is more important than the Olympics. So when Oxford's long winning streak ends in humiliating defeat, they vow victory the next year at all costs. But the method they choose threatens to tear the team apart while setting up a struggle between old-school traditions and modern rivalry. In order to restore the pride of Oxford, they must rally together to achieve their one common goal. |
