Eleven-year-old volleyball libero, Lisa, is consumed by her dream of making Nationals. When her obsession with winning erupts during a crucial match, she fractures her team and injures herself, losing her chance to compete. Forced to rest at home, Lisa faces a deeper struggle: the weight of unspoken expectations within her immigrant family. As she confronts disappointment, pressure, and self-doubt, a heartfelt exchange with her mother helps Lisa realize that her worth isn’t defined by victories—but by who she already is.
