OVERVIEW: Focusing on the daily grind of a female rower, the film follows a routine of repetitive movements between dawn and dusk; a cycle that mirrors the struggle of women carving out a space in a male-dominated sport. In a sudden twist of fate, this "ordinary" athlete joins Turkey’s first female Olympian rower in a single boat. As they glide across the water, they share their stories of isolation and endurance. What begins as a personal rhythm evolves into a collective anthem: We may be lonely, but we are never alone.
