After a car accident gives Robin (Olivia d'Abo) a knee injury that threatens to permanently derail her gymnastics career, she moves to a new city with the modest hope of making her new high school's gymnastics team, the Flyers. Unfortunately, the Flyers' leader, Leah (Renee Murphy), isn't overly keen on Robin. But with the help of her goofy friend Tommy (Keanu Reeves), Robin nevertheless remains determined to prove she still has what it takes to be the best.
