White Ecstasy

Directed by Arnold Fanck

Romantically set and romantically played in the capital of winter sports...ninety minutes of breathtaking adventures on ice...with a cast of hundreds on skis.

Leni, a daring young girl, is visiting for the second time a ski-resort. The local ski-teachers agree to organize a "fox-hunt" for her. Leni and Hannes are "the foxes", and about 40 other skiers will have to catch them, starting with a 15 minutes delay. It's not the story that makes this film, but the extremely spectacular, thrilling shots about skiing.
