Plot Synopsis

When U.S. Olympian Amy Clayton's father died trying to get to her to practice on time, it only seemed right to hang up her skates for good, even if it meant disappointing her mother. Now in her 30's she works odd jobs to make ends meet but still skates at the run-down Mid City Ice Rink, having worked out a deal with the owner of the rink. When the owner passes away, he leaves the rink to his nephew, Tim, who arrives to decide the property's fate. Having skated there for years as a kid, he knows what the rink means to the few who still frequent it, among them aspiring figure skater Nicky Laston. But the offer from developers to buy the property is tempting, and with dwindling funds, Tim is finding it almost impossible to keep the rink open. Meanwhile, Nicky finds out that Amy is skating at Mid City, and convinces the reluctant (and broke) ex-Olympian to coach her. Although reluctant at first, Amy recognizes Nicky's dedication and talent, and through coaching the ambitious young skater, she has the chance to reevaluate her own dreams, even the one she thought she had left behind.
