In 1995, Japan suffered a devastating 145-17 defeat against the New Zealand All Blacks, an anniversary that haunted Japanese rugby officials. Years later, doubts arise about their choice of Eddie Jones as coach for the 2015 World Cup. Determined to change Japan’s image and end years of ridicule, Jones sets out to challenge traditional methods and lead his team to an unexpected victory on the world stage.
