In the 1990s, the “Williams Sisters” – Venus and Serena – rose to prominence in the tennis world. Although they had already shown their potential as teenagers, this film’s focus is not on the growth story of the sisters who have won the Grand Slams multiple times, but rather on their “helicopter dad”, Richard. Known for his strict disciplinary methods and rigorous training, he grooms his daughters vigorously. The Williams family, who did not start with a winning advantage, relied entirely on the careful planning of the helicopter parents. How do they pave the way for their daughters and motivate them to succeed? As the daughters entered their teenages, how do the careful protection of the daughters gradually shift to letting go? Will Smith, who plays the “helicopter dad”, swept multiple Best Actor awards for his role in this film.
