When mountains become allies: Motherhood in professional sports
When skier Janina Kuzma becomes pregnant, she must grow into her new identity as a mother. Confronted with the fear of losing her work as a mountain guide or being judged as a professional athlete, she still finds peace in the mountains. Together with snowboarder Leanne Pelosi and skier Evelina Nilsson, Janina ventures deep into New Zealand’s Southern Alps to uncover the extraordinary strength of motherhood. With this film, director Corinna Marie Halloran offers an intimate and empowering perspective on motherhood in professional sports — a story that demands to be told.
