Synopsis
The world of roller derby is booming. The preselections to enter Team France, the national team that represent France at the 2014 World Cup in Dallas, have started. Players from all around France tried their luck. The 40 preselected girls trained for a year and only 20 of them took up the challenge to the next level in playing at the world cup. One year of meetings, friendships, sacrifice and roller derby above all. They outdid themselves, stuck together and bit the bullet. They overcame their doubts and their effort to be up to their team and for the recognition of their sport, but also and mainly, to meet their own expectancies.
