The documentary features a group of "extraordinary competitors from around the globe: service members who have experienced life-changing injuries or illnesses on their road to the Invictus Games.”
The Invictus Games was founded by Prince Harry in 2014 and provides a global platform for injured, sick, and wounded service personnel and veterans to participate in adaptive sports on an international level.
The competitors in the series are followed as they prepare for the 2020 Invictus Games in The Hague, the Netherlands, which was delayed until April 2022 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
This year’s Invictus Games will take place from September 9 -16, in Dusseldorf.
