Plot: the first part of the film focuses on how four black athletes overcome all difficulties and take the first step of the Winter Olympic Games, while the second half is the usual motivational model. For Jamaican athletes who have not tried to ask minus 25 degrees Celsius, they not only have to face adverse conditions such as weather, geography, and human harmony, but also have to endure ridicule and despise domestic and foreign audiences. And how does the audience awaken the spirit of the athletes to move forward courageously towards the goal with their hard will? Three good Jamaican track and field players slipped and fell at the same time in the Olympic trials, and the dreams of the other three came to naught. However, one of them, Dilly, decided to take part in the unprecedented sleigh race instead, and asked Rakuten's funny friend Xinga to help him, and the down-and-out former champion Erong was coached to form the first Jamaican bobsled team. The comedy element of this film is quite rich. Behind the hilarious effects, such as the fund-raising of the four, the training process, and the differences in climate, there is an exciting message that is worth applauding. Brief comment: this film is based on a true story and tells a legendary story in the history of the Olympic Games. In 1988, four athletes from Jamaica marched according to their will.
