Walter Rhum, an amateur skateboarder, realizes his dream of turning pro and riding for the world's greatest skateboard company, Machotaildrop. Set in an anachronistic time and place, Machotaildrop is the greatest skateboard company of its day and the regal and grand sport of skateboarding has been thriving for many generations.

MovieActionDocumentary
Between Days follows the Arc'teryx snow team in the Japanese Alps during a season-defining storm cycle. Nine riders from four countries, united by a shared language of storm riding. What happens when nine snowboarders from four countries arrive in Japan’s Alps in the middle of a season defining storm cycle? The universal language of “dig yourself out, ride until your legs give in, then do it all again” dissolves all barriers — forging a quiet bond through the raw experience of storm riding. Guided by snowboarding legend Tadashi Fuse, the crew dives into hip-deep powder turns and Japanese philosophical reflections found in the highs and lows of the mountains. This is a snowboard film like no other — familiar yet entirely new. With a stellar athlete line-up, shot in stunning black-and-white on 16mm, featuring Sherpas Cinema–certified cameramen, and produced by Robyn van Gyn and legend Shin Campus, it’s blessed with some of the most unreal powder imaginable.
