Synopsis

In elegant nonchalance, Nicol moves from one bar to the next, traversing the sports hall in back handsprings. Nicol is twelve years old and an artistic gymnast. Tokyo is a portrait of her, focusing on what is also at the center for Nicol: Training six days a week for the next medal at a competition, dreaming of the Olympics, and devotion to the exercise.
