Description

Naïla has done gymnastics since she was very young. In the alleyway, when she competes with her friends, she’s always the winner. This season, she’s registered in a new club, but she’s afraid of how the members of her group will see her. She knows that her body is bigger than those of the other gymnasts. And even if her weight isn’t an issue for her, her mother, or her friends, she is often fat-shamed by the others. What if Naïla were stronger than all that?
