Ostensibly about the Soviet side of the 1980 Olympic hockey 'Miracle on Ice' between the US and the USSR. It's actually about the history of Soviet hockey and the men behind it. It goes into history, politics of the time (on both sides), and the personalities involved. It's almost all subtitled, and is primarily done with interviews. The heroes and villains are all Soviets. In the end, it's a great story about the relationship between a pioneering coach and his players.
IMHO it's the best 30 for 30 of the series.
