#Unbroken – Mabachers Way

IN MEMORIAM MARTIN HABACHER (1977–2019)

In the middle of the preparations for the theatrical release of #Unbroken – Mabacher’s Way, the protagonist of the film passed away unexpectedly on January 20, 2019. This film is dedicated to his memory.

As a matter of fact, Martin was never supposed to live this long. At least not according to the doctors who predicted an early death shortly after his birth. Born with brittle bone disease, Martin Habacher transformed physical fragility into remarkable strength. As the world’s smallest YouTuber, he passionately and humorously stood up for tolerance, breaking down barriers both in everyday life and in people’s minds.
