The Radicals follows Marie-France Roy, Meghann O’Brian, Jasper Snow Rosen & Tamo Campos from their extreme pursuits in the mountains and ocean into the world of activism. Together they journey across the west coast, weaving a story of learning,
inspiration and resistance.
The awe that mountainous landscapes evoke is universal, yet most of us seldom venture into true wilderness. A mother - daughter team sets out for six months in a tent in the winter mountains; a group of nuns inhabit a mountain retreat to be closer to God; a photographer buried in an avalanche; an impassioned alpinist; a focused snow artist; a couple who has been living off grid in the mountains for nearly 50 years. For them, the draw of the mountains is so strongthat their lives must revolve around it.
Throughout both nights, iconic Fernie photographers whose work spans decades will each explore the story behind one of their images.
