The Screen Guide

Athletically challenged cousin-best-friends Brooke and Amy Bland have always loved the Olympics but have never been able to find the time to compete. But 2020 is their year! Only problem is they have no sporting talent to speak of. Join the documentary crew as we follow these Olympic hopefuls on their journey to Tokyo. Most only imagine Olympic glory, but Brooke and Amy are actually doing it…kinda. The Power of the Dream is a celebration of friendship, passion and women in sport. From Nikki Webster to Susie O’Neill, this show is all about the 1996 Atlanta Games Celine Dion ballad - The Power of the Dream - no matter how uncoordinated you might be.
