Here, Hold My Kid - The Austrian Job
A follow-up to the award-winning ski mockumentary Here, Hold My Kid, this 15-minute sequel revisits two professional skiers navigating motherhood alongside elite athletic careers. With more children, more humor, and total exhaustion, the stakes are higher than ever. As they attempt to rebuild their public images under a new sponsorship, these two athletes join forces to survive a world that expects mothers to “do it all.”
