The IRC in San Diego presents: International Documentary Screening in Encinitas

Doors open at 6 p.m. | Screening at 6:30 p.m.

We invite you for our Inaugural Summer Film Screening where the Champions of the Golden Valley will make it's San Diego debut.

"The film follows the story of Alishah Farhang who set out on a mission to bring competitive skiing to the ancient mountain town of Bamyan, Afghanistan. However, following the shocking collapse of the Afghan government at the hands of the Taliban in 2021, Alishah is forced to flee, leaving his beloved home country to face an uncertain future. Director Ben Sturgulewski captures an Afghanistan that few outsiders ever see in his exuberant debut feature film. A unique story that goes beyond skiing, Champions of the Golden Valley is about resilience, finding joy amidst difficult circumstances and what it means to be a champion." – Andrea Passafiume
