In addition to our usual Happy Hour, the filmmakers and Breckenridge art consultants will be tabling ahead of the screening.
Programmer's Note: When Champions of the Golden Valley premiered, it felt like a no-brainer to bring to Breckenridge. A richly told true story that weaves together community, activism, and skiing is the kind of film we look for all year long. The documentary subjects are not so different from our ski-obsessed neighbors, but their struggles in Afghanistan bring a resilient and unlikely community to light. Champions of the Golden Valley will break your heart and glue it back together again - and really make you want to go skiing. (Cait McCluskie, Programming & Operations Director)
