We watched this with Mary, Steven, and Maya (who slept through the whole thing). It is about quadriplegic rugby players (a sport formerly called Murderball). It chronicled the competition between the Canada and the USA teams. The Canadians had a coach that basically just wanted to get back at the USA team for being cut. A common misconception is that quadriplegics can't move their arms, but the case is that they have limited or no movement. It also shared the personal stories of some of the athletes. It was enjoyable and interesting.
