🎥 Films 🎥
🎬 Farming Turns
Chris Rubens was living the dream. As a professional skier, for years he travelled the globe in search of the best skiing, until an expedition to Greenland brought the reality of climate change and his impact into sharp focus. Forced to confront his footprint and values, he takes action, risking his career as an athlete to become an organic farmer in a quest to foster a stronger, more sustainable community and connection to the mountains.
🎬 Slides on the Mountain
“Slides on the Mountain” follows Talon (17) and Riki (15), two brothers from the Lil’wat Nation, as they decide to ski Ts’zil and set off to learn the skills they need to ride the mountain safely. Their unique personalities shine as we follow them through the winter while their mentors and Lil'wat elders shed light on why it's so significant for Lil’wat youth to be able to experience the mountains so deeply entrenched in their culture.
🎟 Raffle prizes 🎟
Your event ticket automatically gets you entered into the raffle – and it’s pretty huge. We’ll have lots of gear giveaways, along with epic grand prizes per location. Prizes available:
👉MEC Label ski kit (jacket and pants)
👉Arc'teryx Covert Fleece

All proceeds from the raffle will be donated to Protect Our Winters Canada, in their efforts to address climate change.
