The first clip for Ben Sturgulewski’s documentary “Champions of the Golden Valley,” which is world premiering at the Tribeca Festival, has been unveiled.
In the film, across the remote mountain villages of Bamyan, Afghanistan, a newfound passion for skiing attracts young athletes from rival ethnic groups who showcase their resourcefulness and skill on the
slopes. Equipped with minimal gear, makeshift skis, and no chairlift, the determined ski coach Alishah Farhang organizes a ski race, uniting the community in joy and camaraderie. However, when their country falls to the Taliban, many of the skiers are displaced across the globe as refugees, confronted with an uncertain future.
