Elite figure skater Ben Taylor-Hess was badly injured at an event three years ago. After a lot of physiotherapy, he's ready to mount a comeback, but now in his early thirties, no coach will take him on. Marcus Altenberg, who lost his own skating career to injury, agrees to coach Ben, but differences in style and recurring injuries threaten to derail Ben's attempt. As the pair grow closer, Marcus comes to see how strong Ben really is, and Ben learns there's more to Marcus than the tough, disciplined skater he was taught to be by his own strict coaches. Friendship turns to romance, but Ben and Marcus both have issues to face if Ben is going to achieve his dream.
