Synopsis

Indigenous Australian figure skater Harley Windsor was the poster boy for the Australian Winter Olympic Team. Paired with Russian skater Katya Alexandrovskaya, this unlikely duo achieved unprecedented success on the ice before meeting with great tragedy. Now Harley is alone in Moscow, contemplating his future. We retrace his steps to uncover the dark side of elite sport. How far are we willing to go in the pursuit of Olympic glory?
