Die Gewichtheberin

19-year-old weight-lifter Sarah Fischer is considered the strongest woman in Austria. She is training for the Olympic games. While trying to find her place both as an athlete and as a young woman within this environment dominated by men, tensions arise between herself and her trainer and father, Ewald.
