Tracks is not a regular snowboarding movie, it’s not really even a documentary. It’s a story about winter and global warming in the arctic circle, told from our perspective as local snowboarders.
Torneträsk, the largest mountain lake in Scandinavia, is today frozen for a month shorter on average compared to when we were children, a clear sign that winters are changing quickly. What can we expect from our winters in the future?
