Viktoria, a driven champion of the wheelchair racing, works hard and devotedly for the next Paralympic games with her team. But something strange is happening in her legs. She discovers she can actually walk. Lost and confused, she continues to train hard, hiding the new fact from everyone, including from herself. But her results in training get worse. Until she ends up being discovered by one of the team members. Together they share her secret. But soon things seem to get out of hand.
