There, she continues her sports career and tries to become or rather remain the best. In the meanwhile, her country is thrown into turmoil – the Maidan Revolution breaks out in Kyiv, sucking Olga’s mother and also her best friend into a dangerous whirlpool. When the sound of revolution breaks into the faraway Swiss gym, Olga is faced with a dilemma.
