Marking the 50th anniversary of the Summit Series, here is the incredible story of an unlikely political stage - the hockey rink - where a Cold War, and the threat of nuclear retaliation, is no less important than a powerplay in minute zero. Discover a diplomacy mission like no other: caught between capitalism and communism, Canada and Russia, young Canadian diplomat Gary J. Smith must navigate the rink, melting the ice between two nations skating a dangerous path. Smith was born in Ottawa, ON.
