✨Proud to share that Champions of the Golden Valley (
@championsdoc ) is now streaming on Olympics.com – as an Olympic Channel Original! Thank you
@olympics for giving this film a home and helping this story reach new audiences around the globe. It’s free, available in 12 languages, and launching right as the world turns its eyes to the XXV Olympic Winter Games in Milano Cortina. As the Games begin, check out the official Olympics trailer and tag your friends who should give it a watch! 🥇
🎬Champions of the Golden Valley is a timely story of unity, resilience, and the power of sport to build peace. It follows
@alishah_farhang_ — former Afghan Olympic hopeful and ski coach — and the brave skiers of Bamyan, whose heart and strength embody the Olympic spirit and what it truly means to be a champion. When you see this community gliding down mountains on their handmade wooden skis, we hope it fills you with joy and reminds you of the shared humanity that connects us to our neighbors everywhere.
🎿Perfect timing: Ski Mountaineering (#SkiMo) is making its debut at Milano Cortina — the first new Winter Olympic sport in 20 years! It combines the grit of uphill skiing with a high-speed descent – and if you’ve seen Champions, the climactic ski race will feel very familiar!
🫶 We hope you will watch it with the people you love – on the biggest screen you can find. So many people have believed in and supported this film along the way, and we are deeply grateful for each and every one of you for joining us on this journey. 💫
