Drama, Romance, Sports | 113 MIN | US

T.J. and his friend Dexter quit their jobs in Detroit to become ski instructors in Aspen. While T.J. becomes the most popular instructor in the school, he must look after Dexter, whose future is so much dimmer that he’s thinking about becoming a drug courier. Meanwhile, rich businesswoman Brice supports T.J. in his writing ambitions and invites him to live at her home. But in her absence, he falls in love with radio moderator Robin.

Wintersköl, Aspen’s annual “toast to winter,” dates back to a quiet January in 1951 when locals chose to commemorate Aspen’s distinctive mountain way of life with a diverse weekend of events.  The multi-day festival showcases on-mountain activities, special screenings at the AF Isis Theatre, snow sculptures, a soup contest, a craft beer festival, a torchlight descent, and fireworks on Aspen Mountain, plus much more.
