TRAILER
Synopsis
Alexia is an 11 years old girl. She looks like a child, like other girls, but she really is not. Alexia is and artistic gymnast. After being terribly disappointed after a bad performance during a national competition, she decides to completely sacrifice her life (friends and pastime) to her great love: artistic gymnastic. This means letting go a part of her childhood and facing each day the intransigence of a young and ambitious coach spending entire days in excruciating trainings. Alexia is a documentary film that tells the story of love and passion, fascination and spectacularity, a human tale told with the eyes of a young girl who has to overcome her fear of making mistakes, failing and disappointing.
