Masatoshi Nakagawa is leading efforts to revive Okuhechi Trail, an abandoned path on the Kumano Kodo. Through the Japanese practice of "Michibushin" (Trail Revival), he envisions a future where restoration and trail running unite to preserve the spirit of these sacred paths.
Skier Hank Stowers explores the San Juan Mountains and its watershed shed, the Animas River Valley, considering how the snow and water, the time and seasons shape both the land and Hank’s life. ‘Surface Tension’ is Hank’s second film this year—an impressive feat that we’re proud to support.
