The father roars, the son cries. For an ice hockey dream you make big sacrifices

Ice hockey is an ordeal, with falls, collisions and collisions with sticks and skates. But what the Winter Games fail to show is how much blood, sweat and tears also flow behind the scenes. For that we have to go to the Chinese cinema, where the documentary Burning Ice is currently showing. Director Liu Hanxiang followed three Chinese ice hockey talents and their ambitious parents for three years. The film is intimate and moving, but also humiliated.
