WhatJuliecares about is making it into the Belgian Tennis Federation, a high-stakes tryout that is fast approaching.

It will take all that she has to play well and win her spot.

Sports are about intense single-mindedness; this is what we revere in our beloved athletes.

But Julie makes you consider the cost of that focus.

This is a discomfiting movie, but also a hauntingly beautiful one.

So I screenedJulie Stays Quietagain, and loved it all the more the second time through.
