  • "Based on a true story, this film follows the compelling journey to the Olympic final of boatbuilder's son Bert Bushnell and Oxford-educated Richard "Dickie" Burnell. Thrown together as double sculling partners just six weeks before the games, they had to overcome vast differences in their backgrounds to become a world class rowing team on an International Olympic stage."
  • "In 1948, just three years after the end of the Second World War, London is half-destroyed. But, determined not to let the Games die, the British Olympic Committee convinces Prime Minister that the Olympics could help bring the country back together. Thrown together just five weeks before the final of the 1948 London Olympics, Bert Bushnell and Dickie Burnell not only pushed physical and emotional limits, but also rose above distinctions of birth and class to become Olympic gold medallists."
