Summary For the Romanian gymnast Andreea Răducan, the loss of her Olympic gold medal in Sydney 2000 is still a trauma. Fifteen years later, she tries to understand, through the eyes of an adult, what has actually happened.
Directed By: Denisa Morariu, Adrian Robe
Deftly, the film shifts focus from Raducan’s disqualification to the entrenched injustices of Olympic sports, with their outsized pressures and brittle illusions of meritocracy.
While all of this is too niche for wide interest, the film touches the troublesome heart of adolescent girls’ gymnastics, which is both a triumph of art and athletics and a sport riddled with a legacy of abuse. That abuse is the secondary but most interesting theme in The Golden Girl.
