ESSENCE OF THE RIDGES, THE cover image
Very enjoyable student made short documentary, with images of Colorado mountains and skiers.

This film shows what we should be fighting to keep, rather than change. It shows the beauty of winter and issues of climate change through skiing.

Made by 15-year-old filmmaker Austin Kim, this film captures the beauty of winter in under three minutes, showing Austin enjoying a run down a snow covered mountain. There is nothing out of the ordinary about this, just a simple explanation at the beginning of how the days of winter weather have decreased in recent years due to climate change and a please to "keep winter". I resonate with this and with the extreme impact that global warming is making on our planet. I applaud Mr. Kim for his contribution to our thoughtfulness on the topic.

The message is about the impact of global warming on our planet.

I give The Essence of the Ridges 3.5 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 5 to 18, plus adults. By Julie S., KIDS FIRST!
