Sweat

Sylwia is a fitness phenomenon and influencer. She has hundreds of thousands of followers, her whole life is about workouts, posting and her bond with her loyal supporters. She shares everything with them – even her despair and loneliness, something her manager doesn’t take kindly to. Her life is upended when she is confronted by a stalker, a pathetic man with whom she shares more than she would care to admit. The dynamic camera follows her every move made, minutely registering the cracks that appear in her meticulous facade and slowly revealing the human behind it. (Rotterdam Film Festival)
