Spoiler-Free Synopsis
Read MoreCollapse
Alexis Winston (played by skater Lyn-Holly Johnson) is a talented ice-skater who is spotted by an Olympic coach. Up until that moment, she was being trained and encouraged by ice-rink owner Beulah Smith (Colleen Dewhurst). Now she is the darling of the skating world, as publicity paints her making a Cinderella-like transformation. Then she has an accident which destroys most of her vision and sends her into a deep depression. Her boyfriend Nick (Robby Benson), her father (Tom Skerrit) and her friends, including Beulah, rally round to encourage her and make it possible for her to skate again. To everyone's surprise, especially her own, not only can she skate again, but she is even able to skate competitively.
