‘Fighting On Ice” Features Gautam Gambhir & Shiva Keshavan
Sports are one of the most spoken about in the Indian subcontinent. But unfortunately when you say sports, it generally refers to cricket which is almost a religion in this country. While efforts have been taken to support & promote other forms of sporting event, the format generally is cricket in its varied forms.
The IPL, the CCI the test matches, one day internationals & the format widens. The documentary film Fighting On Ice is not an ordinary feature documentary on sports. It brings forth the true fight between passion & struggle of people. It brings to the fore the rare appetite that many sportsmen both men & women possess for Ice Hockey which goes beyond money, fame & the closed doors of Government & also speaks volumes about the sports people & their struggle to keep not the just the sport alive, but kindle the passion so that it may stay lit amongst the next generation as well.
The documentary also features Indian cricketer Gautam Gambhir & India’s winter sports hero Shiva Keshavan. The film has made its mark in the international circuit with thumping approval from both the audience & the critics alike. It has won the “Best Documentary” at the Eurasia International Monthly Film Festival, besides being officially selected at the Auckland International Film Festival & Rome Independent Prisma Awards.
