Thanks for sharing! It played one night only in Dallas at a few theatres and I missed it. Glad to see there's another opportunity.

I watched it and it was very good. I guess as swimmers we see this as a great theft of our swimmers efforts and loss of much earned medals that they did not receive. I found it interesting that some of the ,then kids, now adults, were remorseful for what happened to others even though the coaches and "doctors are the ones that did this without the kids knowledge.
