Tatami

In this gripping sports drama, we follow the journey of Leila, a young Iranian judoka, and her dedicated coach Maryam as they make their way to the Judo World Championship. With the entire nation's eyes on them, Leila's pursuit for Iran's first-ever gold medal takes an unexpected turn when she receives a shocking ultimatum from the Islamic Republic. She is ordered to feign an injury and intentionally lose her match, or face being labeled a traitor to her country. As Leila wrestles with the unimaginable pressure of choosing between her love for the sport and protecting those closest to her, her coach Maryam stands by her side, urging her to put their dreams on hold and obey the demands of their government. Amidst the intense competition and political undertones, Leila must decide whether to conform or fight relentlessly for not only her own ambitions but also the future she envisions for herself and those who depend on her.
