Gifted swimmer Erez joins a group of four other athletes at an elite training camp, where they battle each other for the chance of a lifetime – a single place on the Israeli Olympic team. The workout routine is gruelling, but just as intense are the feelings Erez develops for his fellow swimmer and competitor Nevo. Challenged at first by the unwelcoming, hypermasculine environment of the camp, Erez soon realises he strives for much more than just athletic excellence, namely the right to be his true, authentic self. Bright-coloured, sensual, and stylish, Israeli director (and former swimmer) Adam Kalderon’s new film is a bold exploration of male competitiveness and sexual desire.
Film contains scenes of a sexual nature, strong language and nudity.
