I can see it now – Cool Runnings meets Pollock with a touch of The Miracle Worker. That’s how I’ll pitch a movie that tells the compelling story of a Kenyan team competing in the “Olympics of snow-sculpting” in Quebec City, Canada despite never having seen snow. I can see it now, they can score “Chariots of Fire” to the final chiseling of the snowy rhino horn, while in the background Rip Torn, playing the grizzled, down-on-his-luck snow-sculpting veteran that mentors the underdog Kenyans, laughs maniacally as the villainous Finnish team falls through the ice as a final insult to their sneering cockiness. It practically writes itself!
