Synopsis

Thelma is the story of a simple young girl from the province - Thelma (played by Maja Salvador) whose family is beset with challenges when she discovers her uncanny gift of speed.

Her talent then opens doors for her - to elevate her family's situation and change the course of her own life.

But to do that, she will have to run - against all obstacles, against personal hindrances, against shadows from her past, and against her own self-doubts.
