Tour Dates Announced for Australian and New Zealand Screenings of TGR’s New Film, Winterland
Mountainwatch | Press Release
Thursday, August 29: Teton Gravity Research partners with Adventure Entertainment and The North Face to bring their latest film Winterland to Australia and New Zealand
Teton Gravity Research’s Winterland presented by The North Face, is a film that celebrates our athletes’ connection to the roots of skiing and snowboarding while showcasing the pure joy and adventure associated with these sports. By exploring the history, places, and people in the world of skiing and snowboarding, we learn how intimately connected we are with those who came before. From the first Norse skier over 4,000 years ago, to riding first descents on unnamed peaks, this connectivity is palpable to those who love the mountains.
At its core, TGR’s Winterland presented by The North Face, is a celebration of ski and snowboard culture. We can only stand as tall as those who came before, these pirates of the past, who followed their own joy and passions. This story of adventure and passion is far from over, a new crop of modern-day pioneers are eager to etch their names in the annals of history. We follow these individuals as they leave their own mark on these fabled locations and chase the ghosts of the greats who came before them. In the end, we find that each of their experiences reflects a part of the whole. That their season is far more than the sum of its parts.
“A celebration of the best skiing today with a nod to the legends and legendary places which helped shape the path. The technology might change and the style, the mountains skiers ride may be bigger or further out, but the rush, excitement and pure fun remains eternal – bonding past and present and future riders.”
Winterland, presented by The North Face, will premiere September 20 at the Hayden Orpheum Picture Palace, Cremorne. Screenings will then sweep across Australia & New Zealand on the biggest TGR film tour to ever hit the two countries.
