Set within the world of competitive gymnastics, this coming-of-age drama focuses on the tumultuous relationship between two young brothers as they compete for recognition and approval in an upcoming gymnastics competition. When their Coach begins to recognise potential in Noah, Isaac, his older brother and a gifted gymnast, begins to develop deep feelings of jealousy and resentment. What makes things trickier, their strict dad also seems to be more lenient with Noah. The boys’ relationship begins to deteriorate as they struggle with the pressures being put upon them by these authority figures, until Isaac reaches breaking point. A film that shines a light on the importance of self-care and care for others within families and competitive sporting environments, which can also be used to explore the themes of toxic masculinity and patterns of abuse.
