IN MEMORIAM MARTIN HABACHER (1977-2019)
In the middle of the preparations for the theatrical release of “#Unbroken – Mgbachers Way”, the protagonist of the film died unexpectedly on January 20, 2019. This film is dedicated to him.
As a matter of fact, Martin is not even supposed to be still alive. At least not according to the doctors who, at his birth, predicted an early death. Martin Habacher was born with brittle bone disease – yet his physical fragility ultimately made him a stronger personality than one might expect at first glance. Today, the world smallest YouTuber vehemently and humorously advocates tolerance and breaks down barriers – in everyday life and in our minds.
