Plot edit
The film tells about a young gymnast who is seriously injured, as a result of which she decides to leave the sport. But it’s very difficult for her to come to terms with the idea that she is now just like everyone else.[4]
Casting edit
Svetlana Zasypkina largely plays herself, under a fictional name Tanya Serebryakova, although Fridberg wrote the script without any knowledge about her. Zasypkina was a competitive gymnast, who trained between ages 6 and 16, and then retired due to a severe back injury sustained during competitions around 1988. Incidentally, Svetlana Zasypkina shares her surname with Maria Zasypkina, another Russian competitive gymnast. Maria also retired due to a back injury sustained during competitions, but later in 2001.[5][6]
