China’s Aim Media successfully remade the hit film “Champions” from Spain. The remake, titled “Lose to Win,” adapts the heartwarming story of a basketball coach training a team of people with disabilities, incorporating local elements.
The production team faced the challenge of adapting a Western narrative into Chinese culture while maintaining the essence of the original story and characters. Detailed adjustments were made to ensure the film resonated with Chinese audiences and avoided any discomfort or misrepresentation.
The film’s approach to depicting people with disabilities was carefully crafted to convey a sense of fantasy and humor, distancing itself from the realities of societal perceptions.
Original “Champions” creator, Antonio Saura, highlighted the positive impact the film had on changing perceptions in Spain and expressed hope for similar results in China.
Saura emphasized that the film aims to celebrate diversity and humorously portrays the quirks of so-called “normal” individuals, rather than mocking those with disabilities.
The success of the Chinese remake in capturing the essence of the original story was praised, showcasing a respectful and genuine adaptation process that resonated with audiences in China.
