SPORT DOESN’T CARE WHO YOU ARE

Over 2.9 Million people in 7 days have viewed Samsung’s groundbreaking film at YouTube titled ‘SPORT DOESN’T CARE WHO YOU ARE’, designed to challenge viewers to rethink their attitudes towards Paralympic athletes. The film is part of a pioneering initiative led by Samsung to focus people on ability, not disability, and to get them behind the London 2012 Paralympic Games.

 ‘SPORT DOESN’T CARE WHO YOU ARE’ is based on the belief, enshrined in the  campaign manifesto, that sport doesn’t care who you are or where you are from, Sport doesn’t care if you have two legs, or one, or wheels. Sport only cares that everyone can take part and that you give your all to win.

Academy Award nominee Henry-Alex Rubin has directed this raw, cutting edge film that is a powerful and honest celebration of athletes and their coaches, and the chemistry between them. The film contains behind-the-scenes footage of the punishing training regimes of world-class athletes as they prepare for the Paralympic Games.

James O’Shea, one of the film’s stars and Paralympic Team GB swimmer, who is making his debut at the Games, described it as critical in helping disabled sportsmen and women to get the recognition they deserve.
