Documentary

A film that squarely addresses imperfect advocacy in the world of snow sports.

"The Hypocrite" delves into a critical discourse that is resonating with individuals across various spheres. In the context of climate advocacy, the film examines the inherent contradiction between personal actions and systemic efforts. The story is masterfully woven through the perspective of a professional skier, confronting the complex interplay between advocating for change and relying on fossil fuels for athletic pursuits. The film aspires to foster unity and collaboration within the outdoor community, transcending perceived hypocrisy and feelings of not fitting in. It aims to dismantle the culture of individual blame and guilt, focusing instead on the systemic shifts required to pave the way for a sustainable future. By erasing the boundaries that label individuals as hypocrites, the narrative invites viewers to recognize the urgent need for collective action and change.

Sort of addresses the cognitive dissonance that a lot of "climate conscious" outdoor adventure athletes have with participating in activities that further compound on impact to the climate. Creator seems to start out clueless, and comes to the realization that "If I'm not going to change, who's going to?" TL;DR - Keep having fun enjoying what you do, but be conscious, get involved politically, and vote.
