Set in the mid-90s, this based-on-a-true-story underdog tale follows a Chinese table tennis team attempting to become world champions after suffering an embarrassing loss.
In the early 1990s, the performance of the Chinese men’s table tennis team was at a historic all-time low. As the head coach during that time of crisis, Cai Zhenhua was entrusted with the challenging task of forming a new team. Led by the so-called “Five Great Generals”, players Ma Wenge, Wang Tao, Ding Song, Liu Guoliang as well as Kong Linghui, and after a period of arduous training, the team finally prevailed at the 1995 World Table Tennis Championships in Tianjin to return to the pinnacle of the sport.
