Colorado Premiere of “Moses – 13 Steps” at BIFF

A Celebration of Athleticism and Adventure
With the Legendary Edwin Moses in Attendance

BOULDER, COLO (February 13, 2025) – The Boulder International Film Festival (BIFF) is proud to present the Colorado premiere of “Moses – 13 Steps,” an inspiring feature documentary executive-produced by Morgan Freeman and featuring interviews with Edwin Moses, Spike Lee, Samuel L. Jackson, and Neil deGrasse Tyson. The film will screen on Saturday March 15 at 2:30 PM at Grace Commons, with legendary Olympian Edwin Moses in attendance for an exclusive Q&A session following the screening.

“Moses – 13 Steps” tells the remarkable story of Edwin Moses, a self-taught hurdler who revolutionized the 400-meter hurdles and dominated the sport for nearly a decade. His unparalleled winning streak of 122 consecutive races, including 107 consecutive finals, cemented his status as one of the greatest athletes of all time. The documentary, directed by Michael Wech and produced by Leopold Hoesch, takes audiences through Moses’ journey from his childhood in segregated America to his historic victories at the 1976 and 1984 Olympic Games, all while balancing his roles as a scientist, engineer, and advocate for fairness in sports.
