The full-length series of top films about extreme skiing, winter climbing, snowboarding, snow-kiting and other winter fun is returning to the Chateau Riding Hall again after a year. SNOW FILM FEST offers the most successful films of the season with winter themes. It invites you to see films about the absolute extreme of polar expeditions, the shocking feats of athletes and how they live their lives when the adrenaline wears off and they have to cope with situations on the brink of life and death. At the festival you will experience the deafening silence and vastness of the Arctic wilderness as well as the splendour of snow-capped mountains and glaciers. You'll experience situations with the actors that may reveal why they are pushing themselves to their limits, and you may discover that there's a bit of "it" in you, too.
This year's edition features, for example, a documentary about a 9,288-kilometre ski trip along the world's longest railway - the Trans-Siberian Railway. The film is about the crazy journey of six women who in 2014 set off on a small sailing boat from Iceland via Denmark to the west coast of Greenland without much experience or preparation. In Greenland they then explored new ski routes and collected data for scientific analysis of this amazingly wild part of the world. Or the film Tamara, which chronicles a 28-year-old woman's journey to one of the world's most dangerous peaks - K2. The film is a portrait of a woman who loves extremes and lives for them. A film full of pain and fear, but also determination and happiness.
All this and many other films on a large 6x8 meter screen in the Castle Riding Hall on Wednesday, October 26th, from 6 pm. Come for your autumn dose of adrenaline.
