Continuity One should not think from the description that this is the story of Irina Nikitina exclusively – this film shows other athletes, their parents, coaches, and people involved in ensuring that inclusive sports in Russia continued to live. The film is extremely touching and difficult to watch without tears, understanding the difficulties people with disabilities and their environment have to go through. It is logical that at the end of the film, the question of removing all Russian athletes from international competitions, including the heroes of the film, for whom, as coaches and functionaries repeatedly emphasize, sports is one of the rare opportunities for earning money and socializing, of course, is raised. But it is also a story about the opportunity to meet with the closest relatives with whom they broke up many years ago.
'Let Me Win' is the kind of social movie you want to watch - without too much pathetic and melodramatic, although it's extremely easy to slide into it, given the theme. So who exactly is it made for is the question. Perhaps more for those who have experienced it than for the general public, for whom the issues of inclusive education and socialization are often on the periphery of attention and a more frontal narrative is needed. I may be wrong and underestimating.
