The world's best skiers go beyond their wildest dreams to conquer the steepest runs ever faced. Fantastically beautiful images, along with devastating avalanches and fatal spills only serve to push them harder, higher, and faster. Skiers include Ingrid Backstrom, Anselme Baud, Doug Coombs, Chris Davenport, Shane McConkey, Seth Morrison, Glen Plake, and more.

Narrated by SIX FEET UNDER's Peter Krause, STEEP is an exciting examination of the dangerous sport of extreme skiing. The film was written and directed by Mark Obenhaus, a journalism veteran who has spent more than 30 years working on incisive television documentaries (including at ABC News with Peter Jennings, to whom the film is dedicated), STEEP follows the exploits of a dozen current and former adventure skiers who have risked their lives to ski down remote mountains where no one has skied before. They take helicopters and climb mountains to reach the points at which they head downhill, with no signs or nicely carved paths to lead them on their way. They never know when they're going to come across a tree, a rock, or even a cliff as they slice down breathtaking vistas. Obenhaus, who also serves as one of the executive producers of the film, captures amazing runs in British Columbia, France, Iceland, Wyoming, and Alaska, featuring such athletes as Doug Coombs, Chris Davenport, Ingrid Backstrom, Shane McConkey, Andrew McLean, and Seth Morrison. Older legends such as Anselme Baud, Bill Briggs, and Stefano De Benedetti discuss the origins of the sport and are seen in archival footage alongside the newer generation, who is constantly trying to top itself by attempting the seemingly impossible. Influenced by the films of Warren Miller and THE BLIZZARD OF AAHHH'S, STEEP follows these thrillseekers who live for danger, including one of them who actually dies doing the thing he loved best. Anton Sanko's score propels the remarkable action, along with songs by Quien es, BOOM!, and Low.

Theatrical Release: December 21, 2007

5 stars Great Documentary about Extreme Skiing

5 stars Best Ski Movie I Have Seen
I have been skiing for over 40 years and have seen a lot of ski movies. Most feature loud music and corny attempts at humor. "Steep" on the other hand, is a history of extreme skiing done in a documentary format featuring some of the best extreme skiers in the world. The photography and scenery are excellent. Definitely worth the price. DD

5 stars Exceeded My Expectations
Awesome Warren Miller like ski footage with commentary and story of the who's who of big mountain skiing & ski mountaineering. Includes great special features -especially how they filmed some of the footage using a specially rigged camera on a cable -like a football sideline camera that can follow the action! Only wish I was able to see it during the limited showings at the moives on the big screen!

Shawn Ryan, a regular writer for "Angel" and other programs, created this crime drama to challenge the mores of televised entertainment and to provide a heightened reality with increasingly complicated moral questions. Michael Chiklis stars as Vic Mackey, perhaps television's most no-nonsense detective. His violent, brutal methods bring results, but are often despised by his colleague Detective Wyms (CCH Pounder). Also included are a cast of layered characters including a homosexual cop (Michael Jace) and an officer who is also running for office (Benito Martinez). The show's popularity on the F/X network comes from its hard boiled delivery emphasized by unflinching portrayals of police brutality and unclean street language. Episodes have been helmed by first-rate directors including Nick Gomez (LAWS OF GRAVITY, THE SOPRANOS) and D.J. Caruso (THE SALTON SEA).
