“My father did start something amazing” | Sir Ludwig Guttmann | Rising Phoenix | Paralympic Games

In this exclusive clip from Rising Phoenix, the Netflix Original documentary, Eva Loeffler discusses the profound impact and legacy her father, Sir Ludwig Guttmann, created when he founded the Paralympic Games.

Featuring Paralympians from across the world, Rising Phoenix tells the extraordinary story of the Paralympic Games. From the rubble of World War II to the third biggest sporting event on the planet, along the way sparking a global movement which continues to change the way the world thinks about disability, diversity and human potential.

The film follows legendary Paralympians Bebe Vio (Italy), Ellie Cole (Australia), Jean-Baptiste Alaize (France), Matt Stutzman (USA), Jonnie Peacock (UK), Cui Zhe (China), Ryley Batt (Australia), Ntando Mahlangu (South Africa) and Tatyana McFadden (USA).

The International Paralympic Committee’s vision is to make for an inclusive world through Para sport. Our mission is to lead the Paralympic Movement, oversee the delivery of the Paralympic Games and support members to enable Para athletes to achieve sporting excellence.
