An Iranian judo champ weighs her principles and ambitions against the safety of her family and herself in this riveting political sports thriller. Premiering at Venice Film Festival to great acclaim, this unique collaboration between Iranian and Israeli directors lays bare what it means to be held back by the very country you represent.
'A riveting tale of women versus men, athletes versus government agents, and freedom versus oppression ... it’s also an engrossing sports flick in its own right.'
