Phil Esposito, the legendary Canadian hockey player, was one of the brightest participants in the 1972 series of hockey matches between the USSR and Canada. The film covers the period between 2012 and the present day and highlights the most significant visits of Phil Esposito to Russia. Phil talks about how these trips changed his attitude towards Russia - from a sharply negative one, which persisted for forty years after the end of the 1972 Super Series, to a respectful and friendly outlook.

Too much of everything
Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.
This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.
Go in cold, and you're likely to emerge with your blood boiling. This has to be seen to be believed.
