They don’t just fight on the mat — they wrestle for visibility, respect and support: The film follows Germany’s female wrestlers on their path toward athletic success. Amid intense training, injury and personal sacrifice, an intimate portrait emerges of athletes whose everyday lives are marked by quiet dedication. Without glamour, often without recognition, they push against a system that only starts paying attention once medals are won. In a country where sport matters only when it brings ratings or revenue, this film explores what it means to believe in a passion — even when the applause never comes.
