--
JOIN US FOR A SPECIAL SCREENING OF WEAK LAYERS with an ONSTAGE Q&A with WRITER / DIRECTOR & STAR OF THE FILM KATIE BURRELL NORTH AMERICA’S MOST LOVED “LEISURE ATHLETE”.
Canadian Katie Burrell, stars as Cleo Brown, a ski town local in her 30s living the dream (until she’s not). Evicted from her home and sleeping in a van, she takes on adventure industry’s male dominated elite in a bid to win life changing dollars in a 72 hour ski film competition against the best pros in the world - and finds surprising love and loss along the hilarious way.
With starring roles from Hollywood names Neal Bledsoe, Jadyn Wong and Evan Jonigkeit alongside hilarious cameo appearances from world famous skiers including Cody Townsend, Elyse Saugstad, Jonny Moseley and friends. The female led comedy champions the underdog in a progressive throwback to the cult ski movie classics of Hot Dog..The Movie and Aspen Extreme.
Burrell wittily dissects modern, male-driven ski culture while lifting the tight-knit local communities found in ski towns the world throughout. If ever there was an ode to mountain town life, this is it.
