"Push to the limit!" In the snowboard scene extreme challenges are the norm. At the highpoint of his career, the American halfpipe pro, Kevin Pearce, is preparing for the Winter Olympics in 2010, dreaming of beating his arch rival Shaun White. And then it happens: an accident during training in Park City, Utah. Kevin comes away with his life but suffers a serious craniocerebral injury and spends a week in a coma. The film follows his arduous physical, emotional and social rehabilitation. Oscar-nominee, Lucy Walker, presents an audiovisual mash-up of breath-taking sports footage, film diaries, interviews, childhood videos and a fabulous soundtrack. Maren Willkomm
