Join us for a film screening of Martina Halik and her 60-year-old
mother Tania's attempt at a bitterly cold 2,300-kilometer ski trek
from Canada to Alaska through the treacherous Coast Mountains; a
journey that has been completed only once before, and never by a
female duo. Their adventure is interspersed with beautifully crafted
portraits of high-altitude human endurance: the gripping story of an
avalanche burial; a group of nuns who inhabit a mountain retreat to be
closer to God; an impassioned alpinist; a focused snow artist; and a
couple who has been living off grid in the mountains for nearly 50
years. Shot in cinematic detail, This Mountain Life is a riveting
examination of human passion set high in the peaks of British
Columbia, Canada.
