Client TELUS originals & Arc’teryx  A FILM BY Seth Gillis & Sandy Ward Producer Aline Mayerhoffer Add. Cinematography Janik Mayerhoffer Cast Riki Pascal, Talon Pascal, Morgan Fleury, Sandy Ward

To most skiers in British Columbia, Ts’zil (Mount Currie) is a true gem. The gorgeous mountain looms high above Pemberton and is home to many stories of skiers and snowboarders pushing themselves on the classic lines of its Northwest Face. But while Ts’zil is the backdrop to life in the valley, it’s easy to forget that the history of Ts’zil goes much deeper than what’s been skied or snowboarded. “Slides on the Mountain” follows Talon (17) and Riki (15), two brothers from the Líl̓wat Nation, as they decide to ski Ts’zil and set off to learn the skills they need to ride the mountain safely. Their unique personalities shine as we follow them through the winter. During their journey, the brothers find more than a daring ski descent. They uncover a way to reconnect with their land and tradition. A way to join Nature, grow stronger, and link themselves to a sacred line of Líl̓wat People and experience a mountain deeply entrenched in their culture.
