Mountain In My Mind 2: Tragedy Into Triumph [4K FULL FILM]

Tragedy Into Triumph is the 2nd film from Mountain in My Mind and John Padilla. The film features male and female professional skiers and snowboards and their words about mental health in the snow sports industry. This breakthrough film follows in the footsteps of last year’s film by interviewing skiers across the “Suicide Belt” in the Rocky Mountain Region of the United States, as well as showcasing their skiing abilities.

The film has one goal: Destigmatize talking about mental health and suicide in the ski industry.

The film features nearly every type of skiing and boarding, including: backcountry skiing, backcountry freestyle jumps, olympic halfpipe skiing, park skiing, resort skiing, freeskiing, snowboarding, snowmobiling, rail skiing, and freeriding.
