The film feels like a jam session, echoing the ethos of the Grateful Dead, where each moment builds on the last, creating a flowing narrative that's hard to pin down. The cinematography really stands out, with crisp visuals that draw you into the mountain landscapes. The pacing is loose, matching the vibe of its subjects, making it more of a meditative experience than a straightforward sports film.
