The women’s cross-country ski national team. When one of the skiers, Ada, vanishes to thin air just before a race, the team’s formidable queen Maria, is lost without her counterpart. Anna, an eternal underdog, knows her time has come. She will take Ada’s place, and finally rise among the stars. Anna’s relentless pursuit for success leads her down a path that strains relationships and tests her morality, while Maria’s unshakable confidence begins to waver.
As training sessions blend with personal struggles, GUTS paints a poignant portrait of dreams, sacrifice, and the complexities of ambition.
Why we like it:
With unrelenting tension, mounting pressure and stunning competition scenes, the series will take you knee-deep into the ultrademanding environment, through complex characters you will love to hate, fear or cheer for as they go all in, guts and all.
