In this series of 9 episodes of 8 minutes, Olivia Barlier films the players of the girls's team of the Tour's soccer academy. During a school year, we follow these athletes, their victories, their doubts, the tensions that divide them and the celebrations that unite them.
This series attempts to understand what drives young teenagers to leave their social and family life for the love of the sport. It also offers a look at this sport with its ultra-masculine codes that these young girls have taken a passion for and that nourishes their ambitions despite the few prospects it offers them. We discover a youth who plays with codes, in a society where appearances take a lot of place, a trend reinforced by the omnipresence of social networks, Instagram and Snapchat.
Available on France TV Slash and on Youtube, the series is already freely accessible.
