Storyline
While young and in her prime, Nadia decides to retire from pro swimming after the Olympic Games to escape a rigid life of sacrifice. After her very last race, Nadia drifts into nights of excess punctuated by episodes of self-doubt. But even this transitional numbness cannot conceal her true inner quest: defining her identity outside the world of elite sports.

The entire time I kept thinking, or hoping, that the tension they were trying to build would lead to some development and conclusion but nope. The acting is the usual Quebec quality; subpar to most every other country. And there is no storyline at all. Simply events that lead nowhere. And a very ungrateful privilege white cis Olympic winning swimmer.
