Schneewallfahrt, by Hanno Mackowitz (English)
Schneewallfahrt = Snow Pilgrimages
We have been sharing the work of Stefan Häusl and Björn Heregger for the last few seasons. In February 2015, they collaborated with Hanno Mackowitz to produce a beautiful ski film. Featuring the two professional free ride skiers, Stefan Häusl and Björn Heregger, it’s a sensitive homage to unforgettable moments tree-skiing in pristine powder snow that becomes much more than a simple film about skiing. "Hanno Mackowitz captures like no other the magic of the moment and the aesthetic of the sport of skiing in his films. His ability to blend two amazing ski performances with sound, words and pictures has no equal" The film won the Jury Prize at the International Mountain Film Festival in St. Anton am Arlberg, 2015. This is the English version of the 12minute film. |
