International Olympic Committee invites the world to believe in the power of solidarity in new film

Beijing (FIL) Highlighting the relationship between athletes and supporters, the emotive film demonstrates what can be achieved when we join together. The Olympic Games are one of the most powerful symbols of unity in the world. Every two years they bring athletes from all over the world together in peaceful competition while the whole world watches.

Athletes are in the final preparations for the biggest sporting event of their careers, the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympic Games, which begin on 4 February. To mark the occasion, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) today released a new short film highlighting the power of solidarity, which is also reflected in the revised Olympic motto: "Faster, Higher, Stronger - Together".

The film, which continues the Stronger Together campaign, highlights the unique relationship between Olympians and their fans around the world. Viewers around the globe mirror the athletes' movements, demonstrating the impact of this human connection. This sign of togetherness and the belief of others gives people the strength to believe in themselves, to break through the wall, to take the leap - to achieve the incredible. They show that every time we rise, every time we fall, every time we win, we are in it together.

"Every Rise, Every Fall, Every Victory" is part of the International Olympic Committee's Stronger Together campaign, which celebrates the power that belief in each other has to bring people together. It joins a story performed by three-time Olympic medallist Lindsey Vonn and highlights the IOC's belief in solidarity and the power of sport and the Olympic Games to unite people and communities around the world. The Beijing 2022 Olympic Winter Games will take place from 4 to 20 February.

The film was directed by Salomon Ligthelm - a self-taught artist who has won awards for his work around the world - and produced for the International Olympic Committee in collaboration with Uncommon Creative Studio.
