But while living with her uncle she develops an interest in judo. Davaa shows great talent as a judoka, even while dealing with injuries, and at one point having a nervous breakdown. Finally her judo career reaches a peak with the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro. Can Davaa win gold, and glory for Mongolia? | |

Artistic License – History | |
| White Blessing / int_56515a39 | comment |
Artistic License – History: In real life Dorjsuren first competed in the Olympics in London in 2012, where she did not medal. This film omits that first Olympic trip. The movie ends with Davaa triumphantly winning gold in Rio. She did not! She won silver, losing in the final to Rafaela Silva from Brazil. (The film may be conflating the Olympics with the 2017 Judo World Championships in Budapest, where she did win gold.) | |

Age Cut | |
| White Blessing / int_953a8ee8 | comment |
Age Cut: A Training Montage shows young Davaa training with the other athletes at her school. There's a shot of all the kids running together. Then the film cuts back to Davaa training, except now she's at least eight years older and played by a different, adult actress. | |

Disturbed Doves | |
| White Blessing / int_a6049c20 | comment |
Disturbed Doves: There's a whole motif in which doves are associated with Davaa's late mother. Early in the film when Davaa's mom dies, there's a shot in which Davaa parts the curtain only for a flock of doves to symbolically fly out. That's soon followed by a shot of doves flying off a lone tree near their village, where the family used to play. Later in the film, as the stress of training drives Davaa to a nervous breakdown, she starts to hallucinate getting packages filled with dove feathers. | |
