OVERVIEW
Victoire, a 20-year-old judoka, has her transgender identity publicly revealed during a tournament. Her next opponent, Sonia, refuses to compete against her, and over the following hour, the gym turns into a battleground where athletes, parents and officials clash. As the debate over fairness and safety intensifies, Victoire is cast as a symbol – a role she does not want. Instead, she focuses on the only thing that matters to her at that moment: her next match.
