They endured thirteen years of war, dozens of bombings each and every month, but their focus was on one goal: to become Olympic champions. As the Summer Olympics are poised to begin, home audiences can get front row seats to the true story of the Iraqi National Boxing Team – Waheed, Jafaar, and Saadi - and their amazing journey from desperation to the edge of an historic qualification. HANDS OF GOD, executive produced by Oscar®-winner Alfonso Cuaron, follows a group of young men who, with grit and determination, rise to fight for their Nation while defending their lives on the battlefields. When their gym is devastated by a bomb attack, they train outside. Despite living under the persistent threat of ISIS, these men re-define commitment and sacrifice as they strive to accomplish their dreams. From Al Sadr City to Rio de Janeiro, Hands of God is a stunning tale of hope and redemption.
