Riassunto
In 1980s Czechoslovakia, promising sprinter Anna embarks on her Olympic journey. After a collapse during training reveals she's been secretly dosed with steroids, Anna resolves to train clean. Her mother, fearing Anna's Olympic dream will fade without performance enhancements, covertly continues administering the banned substances. Despite crossing the finish line last at an indoor race, Anna remains undeterred, unaware her mother has kept up the doping charade. When the coach learns of their deception, he struggles with his conscience, torn between Anna's health and national glory.
