Filmed in Mexico and Spain, LAS PELOTARIS 1926 tells the story of Chelo, Idoia and Itzi, three Basque pelota players who struggle to achieve their dreams in the 1920s. These successful professional athletes will have to face the consequences of breaking the mold in a world where ambition and freedom were denied to women. The three sportswomen will pay a high price for doing everything they weren’t supposed to do: earn money, succeed professionally, rebel against abuse, or freely live their sexuality.
