What do Idaho, Colorado, Utah, the Pacific Northwest, Sweden, and the Arctic Circle all have in common? They offer adventure.
Picture Clothing wants to celebrate all the exploration of the past year with a five-feature film festival. The Family Film Fest is a collection of films created by Picture athletes, filmed everywhere from the American West to Europe to the Arctic Circle.
Each of the films exudes an element of comfort — something soothing, calming, heartfelt — whether it’s the slow-mo pow shot or the recognition of a trail near home. Given these films were all created during a global pandemic, one theme of this film fest is “home exploration.”
Here’s a sneak peek at each film trailer and what we’re most excited about.
Five Films at Picture Family Film Fest
‘Nix’
Synopsis: This film traces Sander Hadley’s journey as a pro skier, the ups and downs of the industry, dealing with his father’s death, and eventually finding happiness in the simplicity of living life closer to the land at home in Idaho.
Skiers featured: Sander Hadley, Erin Spong, and Bo Ferro
Runtime: 10 minutes
‘The Arctic 12’
Synopsis: In April 2021, a team composed of two couples — a pair of professional big mountain skiers and two IFMGA guides — set out on a 415km traverse above the Arctic Circle. Starting from their home in Sweden, they climbed, up, up, and up in one epic, human-powered go.
Skiers featured: Jackie Paaso, Erin Smart, Reine Barkered, and Benjamin Ribeyre
Runtime: 60 minutes
‘Southwest Scramble’
Synopsis: After a trying winter filled with a pandemic, avalanches, injuries, and ideas that just didn’t work, skier Cody Cirillo wanted to get away from it all. So he took to a bike-to-ski adventure, starting from home in Colorado and heading into Utah.
Athlete featured: Cody Cirillo
Runtime: ~10 minutes
‘Island Day’
Synopsis: This film is about those essential rest days amid days of structure, obligation, and commitment. One nurse in Washington finds his balance, and gives you a look at his time between.
