Edition 2015

Glance Up

Joan Pahisa is 27 years old and has a huge passion: basketball. It would be nothing extraordinary except for a detail: he’s exactly one meter tall. Joan’s life has not been easy, but sport has helped him go ahead. Last summer he took part in the World Dwarf Games in USA, an olympic-style competition that’s held every four years exclusively for little people. Joan was the only representative from Spain because he couldn’t find anyone else to go with him. That’s why he specialized himself in table tennis, an individual sport. His goal, to travel 7.000 km to be World Champion in table tennis and, above all, to play basketball one more time. His trip will show us how the world is seen from just one meter from the ground.
