00:00This is the story of my family.

00:07When I was a kid, I was always a little afraid of my father.

00:16That's good. Can't move in. Left to the head.

00:19Get up. Don't be such a siss.

00:22Come on, Tony.

00:23Yeah, he did a good job. That's it.

00:25Harold, stop it. Leave him alone.

00:27You're far too weak.

00:29You make me feel ashamed.

00:31When I was your age, I was tougher.

00:34Then one day, he discovered that I was good for something.

00:36You always swim as well as that.

00:38You should watch Tony do back straight, Dad.

00:40You go with him. Freestyle.

00:42I want both of you back here at five. We're going to do some training.

00:44Dad, I've got a piano lesson.

00:45Then all you don't.

00:47Not a lot changed over the next five years for me and my brother John.

00:51We trained.

00:52Faster!

00:53We swam.

00:55We won.

00:57But in my dad's eyes, I would never be good enough.

01:01I don't think you've got the guts to work hard enough.

01:04He doesn't care about me, does he?

01:06Forget what he said.

01:07He's damaged.

01:08Dad, you've had enough.

01:10You and me are through.

01:12You're just going to sit here feeling sorry for yourself.

01:15I wanted to win a medal at the Olympics.

01:17You know, I wanted to be somebody.

01:19You've got to be very strong up here in the head.

01:21You should do this on your own.

01:23Show them what you made.

01:24Kai Gilmore!

01:25Get set!

01:27He doesn't matter.

01:29You matter.

01:30Academy Award winner Jeffrey Rush.

01:38Tony could win the Australian Championship.

01:40That's his dream.

01:41It's not my dream!

01:43Academy Award nominee Judy Davis.

01:46I know you have to do this.

01:47I know you have to get away from this.

01:49And Jesse Spencer.

01:50So who's planning on coming second to me?

01:52You'll have to do a lot better than that with me, mate.

01:54I've been psyched up by experts.

01:57In the true story of the courage a nation would cheer.

02:03Only you can make something of yourself.

02:05Not your father and not me.

02:11Swimming upstream.
