In 1924, George Mallory makes an ascent of Mount Everest. But he and Andrew Irvine mysteriously never return from their climb. His legacy involves the possibility that he, and not Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay in 1953, was the first man to reach the summit.
In 1956, Henry Lebash, chafing to leave his teaching job at the Missouri School for the Blind for a gig at up-and-coming IBM in California, nevertheless agrees to create a wrestling team before he leaves. During the course of the season, he is inspired by a blind teen student named Luke Whitman, and becomes a committed and passionate coach, launching a career in the sport. Whitman, meanwhile, becomes his best friend and eventually gets inducted into the National Wrestling Hall of Fame.
