About the title
Young Samia Yusuf Omar from Mogadishu has one passion — running. She dreams of becoming an Olympic champion, despite the civil war in Somalia and strict social prohibitions that prevent women from playing sports. With the help of a childhood friend, Samia secretly trains, overcoming fear and pressure from militants who forbid her to run. Her mother worries about her daughter's safety, but her father believes in her talent. With his support, Samia is ready to do everything it takes to make it to the Olympic Games and fulfill her dream.
