Biniam Girmay on the big screen! – World sports

Mondial Sports on the straight

An exceptional documentary traces the rise of the best African cyclist, the Eritrean Biniam Girmay. Signed by Lieven Corthouts, “This is my moment” was filmed over several years, as close as possible to the champion. The film has just been released in cinemas in Belgium. From the dreams of Biniam Girmay at the end of adolescence in Asmara to his first participation in the Tour de France in 2023, through his historic victories and moments of doubt, “This is my moment” plunges us into the intimacy of an extraordinary African champion. Director Lieven Corthouts is our guest.
