When it came to snowboarding, Kevin Pearce was an indisputable phenom. By his twenties, he had a rivalry with legendary boarder Shaun White, a growing team of sponsors, several championships, and a network of talented friends who loved the sport as much as he did. But in 2010, just months before the Winter Olympics, Kevin suffered a training accident that brought everything to a halt. After days of uncertainty, Kevin emerged from a coma with traumatic brain injury and, with the astounding support of his family, began an unbelievable process of recovery. With as much energy and heart as Kevin brought to snowboarding, Lucy Walker brilliantly documents the physical, mental, and emotional challenges he and his family face. Though Kevin’s journey is the center of the film, it does not shy away from examining the dangers of extreme sports (there is footage from his horrific crash and others). While Kevin’s life will never be the same, he has a new one to build and profound choices to make about what it means to truly recover and how to go on loving the sport he once gave everything to.  ST
