Fair Play Page #4

Synopsis: The 1980s in Czechoslovakia. The young talented sprinter Anna (Judit Bárdos) is selected for the national team and starts training to qualify for the Olympic Games. As a part of the preparation she is placed in a secret "medical programme" where she's getting doped with anabolic steroids. Her performance is getting better, but after she collapses at the training, she learns the truth about the drugs. Anna decides to continue in her training without the steroids even though her mother (Anna Geislerova) is worried that she won't be able to keep up with other athletes and might not qualify for the Olympics, which she sees as the only chance for her daughter to escape from behind the Iron Curtain. After Anna finishes the last in the indoor race, her mother informs the coach (Roman Luknar) that Anna is no longer using steroids. They decide to apply the steroids to Anna secretly, pretending it's nothing but doses of harmless vitamins.

I had her liver tested.

She was all yellow.

The results came out strange.

Could it be because of the Stromba?

She is on Stromba?

Why didn't you tell me?

m not supposed to talk about it.

You know what? We'll keep you here

overnight, then you'll see your doctor.

Nurse!

This is not in my authority.

I have nothing to do with it.

- Why is that?

- Ask your daughter's doctor.

I wish you good night.

Good night, Anna.

Excuse me, could her collapse

have something to do with Stromba?

I don't know and I don't want to know.

Now please go, there are many ill people waiting for me.

- Goodbye.

- Goodbye.

Tomas, m in the hospital.

I was taken here by an ambulance.

Could you ask your parents

about the injections m getting?

Yeah. Ls called Stromba.

Good job, Martina.

Faster ankles and keep bent lower.

- And work those arms.

- Bohdan?

- Hello.

- Hi.

- Do some stretching, ll be right back.

- Bye!

Hi. Where is Anna?

- She got sick yesterday.

- I saw that. These things happen.

- I asked you not to come here anymore.

- We had to go to the hospital.

I doubt that was necessary.

As if you never trained yourself.

This is a physically demanding phase.

We're about to go to the races.

Back in my times we were never forced to take anything.

What is this Stromba?

Itjust helps muscles grow.

If it were to hurt her I don't want you to give it to her.

Relax. Ls under medical supervision.

Everybody takes it nowadays.

Where do you think the East Germans

and Russians have their results from?

Anna must reach the time limit.

No Stromba, no way.

Bye.

Martina, come, les go.

Don't let it spoil our evening.

Tomas's parents say

is strong anabolic. It can kill you.

Bohdan says you're

under medical supervision. I don't know.

Enjoy the meal.

He wouldn't mean to hurt you.

He's trying to help you.

What about those who never get

any help? Tough luck, right?

Are you not going to eat?

m going to train and prove them

I can perform even without that stuff.

Do you know what is your position at the Centre?

As far as I know Bohdan, he'd rather

expel you than get into a trouble.

So what am I supposed to do?

I don't know.

We'll pretend you keep taking it.

- They'll find out at the first check-up.

- Perhaps they won't.

Mum, the carp is burning!

Jesus. Open it up for me.

Anna, speed up!

Move it!

Anna!

Anna, come on, what are you doing?

Keep going, don't be so sloppy!

Come on!

Run!

Whas wrong with you?

What are you doing?

Pulse check. Steady.

Now.

- 30. - 34.

- What?

Ls too high.

Besides you started early.

- Cheating like a little girl.

- Thas not true. - Yes, it is.

You know I hate swindling. Look at

Martina here. How much better is she?
