Nadia (1984)

Set against the backdrop of Romania, "Nadia" (1984) traces the intriguing journey of a young girl, Nadia Comaneci, who is found by the stern yet nurturing gymnastics coach, Bela Karolyi. Alongside his wife Marta, Karolyi painstakingly shapes Nadia for eight relentless years at their training school, moulding her into a gymnastics prodigy. In 1976, a mere 14-year-old Nadia ascends to global fame as she becomes the first woman to achieve a perfect 10 in the Olympics, securing her place in history. She amazes the world by accumulating seven perfect 10s, three gold medals, one silver, and one bronze, gaining the status of a revered celebrity in Romania and beyond. However, the crushing weight of expectations proves too daunting for young Nadia. A puppet on a string, she is pulled away from her mentor Karolyis by the Romanian government. Nadia's life spirals downwards, leading to a physical and emotional slump, reflecting in her overweight and out-of-shape condition. Despite these overwhelming odds, Nadia displays the spirit of a true champion as she bounces back to glory at the 1979 World Championships, exemplifying the resilience and determination that defined her career.

Nadia is a drama movie featuring Jonathan Banks.
