This eye-popping, yet intimate, story of U.S. champion snowboarder Kevin Pearce uses years of vérité footage to expose the excitement and appeal, as well as the high stakes, of participating in extreme-action sports. Training to compete against longtime rival Shaun White at the 2010 Winter Olympics, Kevin suffered severe traumatic brain injury from a 2009 accident in Park City, Utah. As an elite athlete, Kevin was a professional risk taker, but as a brain-injury survivor, his skills were impaired, and even a small blow to the head could kill him. Underwritten by Sundance Institute. Part of the Reel Community Series in partnership with the Utah Film Center.
