NEW YORK VIEW
Hungarian director Szabolcs Hajdu's sports drama retells the story of his own brother, a gymnast with Cirque du Soleil who plays himself in the film, and his mentoring relationship with a young Canadian hopeful.
CINEMASOURCE SYNOPSIS
Having suffered as a boy under a brutal Communist-era coach, champion Hungarian gymnast Miklos moves to Canada years later in search of a new start--only to find himself unwittingly perpetuating the very same cycle of abuse among his own pupils. Redemption appears in the unlikely form of Kyle, a troubled, young Canadian teen with the potential to become a world champion. The friendship and rivalry between teacher and student--each played by actual gymnasts--forms the basis of this gripping, resonant sports drama.
