FILM: Champions of the Golden Valley

  • Palace Byron Bay Jonson Street Byron Bay, NSW, 2481 Australia (map)

Champions of the Golden Valley is an award-winning documentary that reveals a breathtaking, seldom-seen side of Afghanistan - the snow-capped mountains where a homegrown ski culture is taking root. At its heart is Alishah Farhang, a former Olympic hopeful whose dream of representing his country transforms into a mission to share skiing with his homeland. With handmade wooden skis and second-hand gear, young athletes from rival villages unite in a race that becomes a powerful catalyst for resilience, joy, and community. Visually stunning and deeply human, the film shows how sport can forge hope and unity in even the most unexpected places.
