"Our Erika" is inspired by the life of the track cyclist racer Erika Salumäe. It is a drama of personal triumph over seemingly insurmountable odds. Erika's story goes from her painful and tortured childhood to her first Olympic win in 1988. Erika is a defiant fighter driven by her subconscious need and desire to be loved. She tries to use her brutal childhood trauma to become an Olympic gold medalist and the ‘light of the nation’, but does her success ultimately bring the desired love she wants?
