Synopsis:
The life of Hubert Jerzy Wagner is a ready-made script for a film. A brilliant Polish volleyball coach who rose to the very top and then painfully fell to the bottom. Hubert Wagner became the volleyball coach when he was only 32 and nobody expected him to achieve any success with the Polish national representation. Yet, his team won the World Championships in 1974 and the Olympic Games in 1976. Since then, no Polish team has achieved so much. He had a revolutionary vision of trainings and approach to players. However, what a price did he pay for his success. Hubert Wagner’s life with its ups and downs, seen from the perspective of the “Golden Team” players, closest family members, friends and journalists.
