Daphne, a fiercely driven teenage judo athlete from a remote Greek island, dreams of escaping her isolated world and chasing Olympic glory. When she follows an enigmatic coach, Sensei Yuri—once a judo star who mysteriously vanished from the spotlight—to the city, she steps into a world more demanding and revealing than she imagined. As Daphne grapples with the pressures of elite sport, an increasingly strained mentorship, and her emerging sexuality, she finds herself on a path of self-discovery. Patty Is Such a Girly Name explores the high cost of ambition, the complexities of identity, and the quiet strength it takes to grow up queer.
