Based on Arshay Cooper’s Memoir
A Most Beautiful Thing

The film takes a deep dive into the backstories of these young men, examining the issues of trauma and violence. As the team’s captain, Arshay Cooper, reflected, “When we were on the water, we were in a place where we could not hear the sound of sirens or bullets, and that allowed us to shape a different vision for ourselves, of who and what we could become. And that was a beautiful thing.”

In the wake of the death of a coach, these young men decided to come back together, after 20 years out of the boat, to race once more. For their sons and for their community. In an extraordinary turn of events, Arshay reaches out to Chicago Police Department officers to join their team. What then transpires is unexpected for all involved.
