Gwendolyn

Gwendolyn, a retired anthropologist and active weightlifter, became a three-time world champion at age 65. Fragile and lightweight, she is everything but a typical weight lifter. But when she is stepping towards the dumbbell there is no doubt she is serious about it. Gwendolyn is facing her soon to come third salivary gland cancer surgery. Her body is weakened, part of her face currently paralyzed. But rather than engage in the prescribed rest, she defends herself against illness and aging and wants to become world champion once more. With her loyal trainer Pat, she prepares for the upcoming weightlifting season.
