Life Doesn't End Up Here
If your whole life was built around one dream, and that dream vanished overnight, what would you do?
From the roar of the crowd to the silence of the unknown, Life Doesn’t End up Here is the unforgettable true story of Michal Mrazik — a hockey prodigy whose dream was shattered far too soon. But this is not just a story about sports. This is a story about what happens after the final whistle blows.
