OVERVIEW

Don't look away tells the story of Věra Čáslavská – legendary gymnast, Olympic champion, and brave woman who stood up to the Soviet occupation in 1968. Her sporting triumphs and silent protest at the Mexico Games made her a heroine at home, but also brought her into disfavor with the regime, which forced her to leave sport and public life.
