Storyline
Leila’s got her sights set on judo gold—like, serious history-making for Iran—alongside her coach Maryam, who’s basically her anchor through the chaos of the world championships. Just when things are heating up, the powers that be in Iran drop this brutal bombshell on them: Leila’s supposed to throw the match and pretend she’s hurt, all to avoid some political drama. Not exactly what you train your whole life for, right? Now she’s stuck between a rock and a hard place. Her family’s safety, her own freedom, everything’s on the line if she doesn’t listen. But then, there’s that stubborn fire inside her—the urge to fight for what’s right, to win not just for herself but for every girl who ever dreamed big. Maryam, torn between fear and pride, begs her to play along. Leila has to decide: fake the fall and go home, or stand her ground, knowing full well what it might cost. High stakes, no easy answers, just raw determination and the weight of a nation on her shoulders.
