Olympic gymnast Nadia Comaneci is profiled in this heart-warming family film. Nadia began training competitively at the age of six, with the now world-famous coach, Bela Karolyi and his wife Marta. At fourteen, she became the first Olympic gymnast to score a perfect 10 and walked away with five gold medals, two silver medals and one bronze at the 1976 Olympics. The petite gymnast from Romania was now an overnight media sensation, inspiring a whole new generation of future Nadias. But, fame came with a high price. As Nadia grew into a young woman she struggled with isolation, weight gain that threatened her career and the fear of exceeding increasingly high standards.

Nadia captures the hard work and determination of a young girl driven to success. The film stars Oscar® nominee Carrie Snodgrass (Diary of A Mad Housewife), Talia Balsam (Without A Trace), two-time Emmy® nominee Conchata Ferrell and Johann Carlo (Quiz Show).

This is a great movie .
I enjoyed this movie very much as I remember watching her make history in the olympics with all of her gold medals. It was fun to watch the olympics this year and to see her coaches Bella and Marta still working with the olympics.

Nadia...inspirational
I viewed this movie as a child growing up almost daily....it was inspirational and lead to my leisure time engaged in gymnastics. Now that I am older it still is a great film to watch!!

Nadia
Best gymnastics movie ever! I used to watch this growing up before all my gymnastics competitions to get psyched for the meet.

Interesante
El problema es que su realización es muy pobre, carece de menu, no trae bonus, ni subtítulos, ni otros idiomas, está hecho a la rápida pero la pelicula es entrañable.

Excellent movie
It is a very good movie of Nadia, since there is not much available about her life, this one is a good option, my kids (6 & 8) liked a lot and feel enthusiastic again about her gymnastic class.
