An unforgettable season unfolds at the 1996 US, European and World Figure Skating Championships as shining stars return to defend their places at the pinnacle of the sport and relative unknowns chase their one moment of glory. Will Nicole Bobek defend her title at the US Championships? An ankle injury forces her to exit the ice in tears, keeping the dream alive for Michelle Kwan, Tara Lipinski and Tonia Kwiatkowski. At the European Championships, Irina Slutskaya tries to win the first Ladies' European title for Russia. In the Men's Competition, Ukrainian Viacheslav Zagorodniuk overcomes his personal and competitive struggles. 1996 marks the 100th anniversary of the World Championships. Canada has hopes for its own - World champion Elvis Stojko, but Todd Eldredge preforms brilliantly. The climax is the Ladies' Competition. Is Michelle Kwan up to the challenge from the reigning World Champion, China's Chen Lu? Theirs are two of the most memorable performances of all time.
