MOMENTUM

Oliver Falk is one of the greatest hockey talents. He was raised on the ice by his father - former star player and now head coach Lasse Falk. Now, Oliver carries both a legacy and an ambition: to make a living from hockey and to make his father proud. But after his shoulder is injured during a match, cracks begin to show. Who is Oliver Falk off the ice? Opioids become a shortcut to maintaining the sport and numbing the pain – both on the ice and in everyday life. When the consequences finally catch up with him, he faces the most important match of his life.

From acclaimed filmmaker Jonas Risvig (Kontra, 2024; Salsa, 2022-), MOMENTUM is an intense sports drama starring rising talent David Skytt alongside internationally renowned actor Ulrich Thomsen (The Marco Effect, 2021; The Celebration, 1998). Drawing on Risvig’s own background in ice hockey, this deeply personal project explores universal themes of ambition, identity and the pressure to live up to expectations. Combining the high stakes of competitive sports with an authentic, character-driven story, MOMENTUM delivers a powerful cinematic experience that reaches far beyond the ice rink.
