There's Always Next Season
In 1997 the snowboarding event Arctic Open was held for the first time in Tromsø. Legend has it that a local snowboarder made a spectacular jump and that a movie was in the making. But what really happened? This is the story behind the myth, about a group of Tromsø’s forgotten snowboard heroes, told in a heartfelt and enthusiastic way by the protagonists themselves. Thus, a film about a group of complete unknowns becomes proof that everything is possible, while at the same time being a melancholic reminder that nothing lasts forever.Richly told through archival video, photographs, VHS and super 8 footage, as well as new material shot over the last six years, THERE’S ALWAYS NEXT SEASON is a meta-documentary about not one film but two, both of which nearly never were. And though the love of snowboarding is at the heart of the film, this isn’t a sports film -- it’s a moving coming-of-age story about persistence, passion, friendship, the disappointments of aging, and what it truly takes to make sure your legacy isn’t forgotten.
