‘Many Fantasies Later’: A Moody, Award-Winning Ski Film

Arthouse documentary meets rowdy big mountain ski stunts in the 11th film from YouTube creators The Bunch.

It takes a while for Many Fantasies Later to get moving, but once it does, you’re in for a treat.

Using GoPro cameras and drones while skiing at light speed, the film’s best moments feel like something out of the latest James Bond movie.

One thing is certain: These guys know how to shoot skiing better than most.

“During this voyage, we came down with the mad cow disease and won film of the year [at the High Five Festival],” the video description says. “Are those two things a coincidence? Separate events that have nothing to do with each other? I think not … as we have never gotten the mad cow disease or won film of the year before. Which would leave me to wonder if we should have gotten the mad cow disease sooner.”

Yes, the video is just as beautiful and strange as that description.

Don’t miss this one.

Runtime: 26 minutes
