Dein härtester Gegner bist du selbst

About the courage to face one's feelings. With brutal training sessions and an unyielding will to win, ice hockey professional Andreas Renz pushes himself to success. He rises to become the captain of the German national team and a record national player, known as "indestructible." Since childhood, he has been driven by the fear of not being good enough. Yet, behind his tough exterior, Renz hides an inner emptiness that he tries to fill with thrills outside the rink. It is only after a serious training accident that he realizes how much he has been fleeing from himself. Stripped of his professional prospects and caught in a relationship chaos, he must now take a closer look. In a painful process, he frees himself from his old beliefs and begins to heal his emotional wounds. Andreas Renz shares his journey of letting go and the power of emotions. His story illustrates how self-love can radically transform life for the better. He is convinced: "If I, one of the formerly toughest guys in professional ice hockey, the 'Iron Renz,' could find access to my feelings and self-love, then anyone can.".
