The story follows the childhood and teen years of Gabby Douglas who overcame overwhelming odds to become the first African American ever to win gold in the individual all-around event at the 2012 Summer Olympics in London. A prodigy from a very young age, Gabby Douglas originally made her mark on the world of competitive gymnastics at age eight. She won numerous state championship titles in her age group throughout her early competitive career. While her star was fast rising in the arena, Gabby and her family faced economic challenges at home and she made the difficult decision to leave her mother Natalie, three siblings and grandmother in Virginia Beach and move to Des Moines, Iowa, to train with renowned coach Liang Chow to pursue her dream of Olympic glory. Buoyed by her early success, dedication and unyielding love from her family, Gabby made it onto the 2012 U.S. Women's Gymnastics team, with whom she faced intense competition in the London Games. Her sacrifice and perseverance were triumphantly rewarded with Team Competition and Individual All-round gold medals, placing Gabby and her teammates - known as "The Fierce Five" - among the world's all-time greats in gymnastics.

inglês Gabby Douglas has an incredible story, and it’s definitely worth watching. It’s an inspiring tale that will give hope and courage to young athletes who, like Gabby, dream of showing off their talent at future Olympics. The director also throws in a bit of faith and the supernatural, adding another layer to the film. In the end, it’s a small movie about one athlete's journey that will resonate with anyone in America who has a heart for sports and the thrill of victory. ()
