Alpine Odyssey, a film by Ivan Hexter, tells the story of Huw Kingston's winter 2022 journey along the 700km length of the Australian Alps, a journey he first undertook 27 years ago.
The 50-day traverse also saw Huw skiing at each of the dozen mainland Australian snow resorts en route. It was a journey across country he has loved for decades, a journey to celebrate the mountains and communities that make up this very special, very small part of Australia. But with love also comes concern and care.
Screenings will raise funds for Save the Children and Protect Our Winters (POW), two organisations Huw is very proud to be an Ambassador for. Funds will be raised via entry tickets, raffles/auctions etc.
Whilst the film will be core to each event there will be other elements to entertain the crowds! POW will also be presenting details on some of the important work they are doing here in Australia.
