Synopsis
At a special school for athletes, where intense physical training is the curriculum, fifteen-year-old Sabine is determined to become a world-class runner. Not the best female runner, but simply the best. She therefore wants to run with the men in the 400 meters. The methods of her coach don't suit her, so she goes her own way. But in addition to fighting the notion that she can't compete with men, she must also struggle with her maturing body and sexual awakening. And it doesn't help that her boyfriend is faster than she is. She wants to be a high performance machine, but her body and heart may not cooperate.
