Plot: Alexia Moreno is a young promising figure skater. While participating in the French championship, she does a triple Axel and lands badly, breaking her Achilles' heel. Her career ends suddenly and all her dreams vanish. After a life full of effort and sacrifice, Alexia loses herself in the Parisian nightlife to forget her failure and make up for the frustrations of her strict upbringing. Until the day when she meets Jacques Rocaille, a second class coach who still believes in her. She now finds herself confronted to a choice: go back to her hard life of training and risk failing and becoming the media's laughing stock or continue losing herself in a life devoid of meaning.
