Over five years of unprecedented access, four Chadian girls transform from children into pioneers. Leaving their families behind, they journey to a new continent to master a sport non-existent in their homeland: Artistic Gymnastics. Amidst global upheaval and personal fears, they aren't just chasing a medal; they are building a legacy for a generation of women in the heart of Africa. A 5-year cinematic odyssey about the grace of resilience.
