Threshold - a Story featuring Olympic Skier Jessie Diggins

from Westdoc Online · host Chuck Braverman

Writers are told to write what they know — the same applies to filmmakers. Lars and Torsten Brinkema, two brothers practically raised on skis, produced and directed Threshold, a compelling story of the public life and private struggles of four-time Olympic medalist Jessie Diggins, America’s most celebrated cross country skier. They reflect on the challenges of shooting in freezing conditions, working with drones, finding an agent, budgetary/ living expenses, and their symbiotic filmmaking relationship. Grab your parka and come along.
