Welcome!
Welcome to the temporary website for Slush, a documentary on the Scottish ski industry. We will have our own website soon, where you will be able to view the film upon release on 25th May onwards. Here's the film synopsis:
As the effects of global warming begin to be seen across the globe, ski resorts are in decline and need to look in new directions to stay alive for the future. While this issue has become apparent across Europe over the last few winters, one area has been battling the weather for the best part of a decade – Scotland.
With decreasing snowfall and the lure of the Alps, Scotland is not drawing in the crowds as it once used to. Several resorts have narrowly avoided closure, and despite developments allowing walkers and bikers onto the slopes, the Scottish ski industry is facing uncertain times.
Will skiing and snowboarding become impossible, without leaving our shores or without turning to artificial alternatives? Our documentary aims to investigate these issues, find out what it means to ride in Scotland and see if global warming is affecting the future for Scotland.
