Four United States Iraq War veterans - Kortney Clemons, Scott Winkler, Melissa Stockwell and Carlos Leon -fight to turn the nightmares of battle into Olympic dreams. After losing limbs and suffering paralysis they set out to do what many thought impossible, to compete in the 2008 Paralympic Games in Beijing. Through failure, pain and triumph, Warrior Champions follows these soldier-athletes as they train and compete for a new goal - spot on the team. From the battlefields of Iraq, to the Walter Reed Army Medical Center to the track fields and swimming lanes in Beijing, this emotional film is an uplifting testament to the human spirit that challenges every notion of what it means to be disabled.
