Sony Pictures Home Entertainment has officially announced and detailed its upcoming Blu-ray release of Gabe Polsky's documentary Red Army (2014). The release will be available for purchase on June 9.

Official synopsis: Red Army is an inspiring true story about the Cold War played out on the ice rink, and a man who stood up to a powerful system, paving the way for generations of Russians. From Oscar-nominated and Emmy award-winning filmmakers, Red Army examines the most successful dynasty in sports history: the Red Army hockey team. Told from the perspective of its captain, Slava Fetisov, the story portrays his transformation from national hero to political enemy. With the demise of Communism came the end of the Cold War, as Soviet players began joining the National Hockey League. The film examines how sport mirrors social and cultural movements in Cold War Russia.

Red Army was executive produced by Werner Herzog, Jerry Weintraub and Liam Satre-Meloy.
