In her directorial debut, Martina di Lorenzo tells the story of two female ski jumpers, Katharina Althaus and Eva Pinkelnig, as they prepare for a groundbreaking change in skiing: the first official ski flying for women in Vikersund, Norway. Until now, this supreme discipline of ski jumping was only available to men. The documentary follows the two athletes through their physical and mental challenges as well as their fight for equality in skiing.
