Following its theatrical and VOD release this past summer, the new film from Trent Haaga is coming to Blu-ray and DVD this winter from Scream Factory, and we have a look at the cover art and release details:

Benjamin Oberman, CEO of Film Festival Flix announces the lineup for its maiden voyage of the Online Mountain and Adventure Film Festival. Oberman, along with Joni Cooper, (former Director, Banff Mountain Film and Book Festival), James Edward Mills (Journalist / The Joy Trip Project), and Nasa Koski (Adventure Film School), will host the first annual Film Festival Flix Mountain & Adventure Film Festival over an unprecedented 28 days during the month of February.
The online festival, which will celebrate world class athletes, explorers, filmmakers, adventures and awe-inspiring locations from the most remote corners of the planet, boasts a series of interactive Athlete & Filmmaker Q&A’s, Expert Panels, and Twitter Chats; all online.
Seven competition categories will be awarded a total of $12,000 in cash prizes with additional recognition through sponsored awards. Winners will receive distribution on Film Festival Flix, affiliate networks and branded distribution channels.
In its mission to celebrate great mountain and adventure films and cultures from around the world, the festival will provide greater opportunity for films and audiences to connect through the internet.

With the success of his distribution company, Film Festival Flix, he is able to provide a landscape to combine both worlds. “Mountain and adventure films embody the Film Festival Flix ‘Think Independently’ mantra,” says Oberman. “They smash traditional molds and push common boundaries revealing living life on one’s own terms, and capturing moments few of us will ever experience.”
