Storyline
| Plot Summary |
Sabine is a teenager who dreams of becoming a top athlete. She studies in a high performance sports center, under the strict control of Gelewski, who she constantly criticizes for his training methods. Sabine only thinks about improving her marks at all costs, even competing with male athletes. As she seeks absolute control over her body, which she conceives as a motor of unlimited possibilities, she ends up nullifying herself and those around her. A body is not a machine. It has its mysteries, its weaknesses, and at any moment it can collapse. |

| Trivia | Ursula Meier recalls that when Louise Szpindel played the scene where her character undresses and sees herself naked in her entirety, the 14-year-old actress broke down. "We emptied the set to leave only the cameraman, I directed her with the video feedback. The moral contract is there. If an actor doesn't want to go somewhere, either we don't go or we find a solution together," Meier says. See more » |
