What happens when you take a Young Gun, a veteran, some chick and this other guy and drop them off in the middle of the snow-coated Canadian wilderness with a few boards and enough lenses to make even Marilyn Monroe blush? We wanted to find out. And so we did all that. Then we made Depth Perception. The film invites you to join Austen Sweetin, Travis Rice, Robin Van Gyn and Bryan Fox on an expedition. It'n to learn about nature. An expedition to ride some of the best backcountry on the planet. And, occasionally, an expedition to violently fall down a mountain to the peaceful hum of a violin. Mmm. Yeah. Depth Perception is somehow as earnest as it is tongue-in-cheek.

Plot

In winter, deep in British Columbia, there's more than just some of the best places to ride on earth.  Here, around every corner there's some unexplained phenomena taking place. Snowboarders Travis Rice, Robin Van Gyn, Bryan Fox and Austen Sweetin each have a very unique and creative approach to life. They each share a curiosity for a deeper understanding of the interconnected natural world that snowboarding takes them to.    Through their experiences riding in the heart of winter at CMH Galena we get to peek into how dynamic snowboarding can be in the furthest temperate inland rainforest on the planet. Presented by Quiksilver, Depth Perception showcases the fantastic layers of the super natural world, which ultimately becomes the perfect backdrop for some of the most empowered free-riding of their lives.
