The programmer’s eye

Pearl only lives for female body-building contests, sculpting her physique under the watchful eyes of her reserved coach Al. Her past resurfaces with her ex husband and son that she left behind. A turmoil in her well-oiled universe. The film can show off its strength but also a great sensitivity, between an accurate observation of the environnement (the actor Julia Fory is a real body-builder) and a theatrical stylization.
