A joung promising ice-skater Vera Reshetnikova being in a peak of her career becomes a victim of an unfortunate accident set up by a treacherous partner along with an envious rival. With a serious back injury she finds herself in an invalid rehabilitation centre instead of the championship. And instead of the breath-taking victories she can hope for nothing else but a perspective to remain in the wheel-chair till the end of her life.

Getting Back Viera is a story from the realm of a professional ice skating where fame is always chased by black envy and risk; and the rivals' intrigues are often more dangerous than cold and treacherous ice
