SKI – The Greatest Ski Tour of All Time *7, Eng.txt*

This ultimate ski film tells the story of two friends who embark on the most dangerous and adventurous ski trip ever. The hyper-commercial world of professional freeride skiing collides with the purist ways of mountaineering when internationally renowned skier and filmmaker Nikolai Schirmer discovers that his reclusive childhood friend is embarking on a ski tour unlike any he’s ever done before, without telling anyone. Vegard Rye is training to climb and ski 27 mountains in one go. The equivalent of running four marathons while climbing Mount Everest from sea level—three times. To accomplish this inhuman feat, Vegard isolates himself from friends and family, lives in caves, and dedicates his entire existence to self-improvement. Nikolai wants to share his friend’s story with the world and sells it as a film titled The Greatest Ski Tour of All Time. He tries to adopt his friend’s bizarre training methods to take his own skiing to new heights. Nikolai quickly learns that it’s easier to sell a story than to live it yourself. The bigger question of why he lost his best friend and mountain partner so many years ago lingers. *English subtitles!*
