Telluride News: "Chasing ice, capturing climate change"

"Photographer James Balog has long been captivated by ice, a medium of limitless shape-shifting and surreal beauty that takes the form of crystalline sculptures and blocky landscapes, glittery crusts and all manner of otherworldly architecture."

Mountain Film Screens Chasing Ice

Screening Saturday May 26th at 3:30pm at Michael D. Palm Theatre
"In 2005, photographer James Balog set out on an audacious quest: to document the disappearance of glaciers by setting up time-lapse cameras around the world. With temperatures on the rise, his plan worked well as the cameras of his Extreme Ice Survery captured some of the biggest calving incidents ever. But award-winning Chasing Ice isn’t just about the glaciers, it also shows an artist at work. Balog, who has been coming to Mountainfilm for more than a decade, wrestles with a bad knee, faulty equipment and the existential question of how the collapse of glaciers is a harbinger of our own uncertain future."

Sundance London: Chasing Ice Review 

"In Chasing Ice though, director Jeff Orlowski and Balog have created a highly compelling and visually striking argument as to the extent of the changes occurring on the planet today. Despite the film ending on something of a positive note, and with the strains of Scarlett Johansson singing ‘Before My Time’, as one leaves the cinema, mouth gaping from the awe-inspiring power of our natural landscapes, it is very hard not to shake the sickening feeling that we are in very, very serious trouble."
