Eteri Tutberidze

Vladimir Pozner interviews politicians and people of culture, science and sport.

The ISU Figure Skating Awards is an annual celebration of the best in Figure Skating. This prestigious event honors not only the Skaters who captivate audiences worldwide through their creativity and entertainment but also the dedicated coaches, choreographers, and costume designers who bring the sport to life behind the scenes.

For three months, overweight participants will live in a camp and undergo physical and psychological tests. Their mentors and assistants on the path to a new life will be sports coach Eteri Tutberidze, women's rugby team coach Kirill Kosharin, nutritionist and nutritionist Dr. Regina and psychologist Anetta Orlova.

This film presents a unique behind-the-scenes look into the lives and training of two of the world’s top figure skaters, Evgenia Medvedeva and Alina Zagitova. In the spotlight, they soar and spin through the air while beaming radiant smiles. But their real lives include more discipline, devastating falls, and harsh criticism than perfect landings and effusive praise.

Eteri Tutberidze's students dominate the ice, her athletes take prizes at the Olympic Games, but Tutberidze's personality still remains hidden from sports fans. Behind the scenes of athletes' and coaches' lives, how the figure skating industry works.

The film tells about the first steps of Evgenia Medvedeva on the ice, about working with Eteri Tutberidze, about everything that the world champion had to give up for the sake of sports, and what to gain. And also - about overcoming, about sincere and complex emotions and real partings. And also - about plans, prospects and about who to be after the sport.
